The final year Advanced Diploma of Fashion Design and Technology students’ will parade their six piece graduation collections in a raw, underground location in the Adelaide CBD.

With collections ranging from eveningwear to wearable art, menswear to contemporary daywear, the parade is a culmination of three years of fashion design study.
On what people can expect from this year parade, Senior Fashion Lecturer Helen Jansson said: “The level of individuality in fabric design and garment embellishment is a strong focus for the 2012 Fashion Graduate Parade.”
