RSN Degree Students have attained national recognition in two prestigious design competitions.

Jasmine Dawson, 2nd Year Degree Student, was awarded Third Prize in the regional London heat of the Society of Dyers and Colourists International Design Competition, designing for a ‘circular economy’. The brief focused on colour and its use in the design process.  First launched in 2002, the Society of Dyers and Colourists International Design Competition is an annual competition, open to students in 14 countries. Jasmine has ambitions to work within interior design and create bespoke textiles for interiors.

Anna Holmes, 1st Year Degree Student (image right), was awarded First Prize in the Worshipful Company of Glovers of London. Student Glove Design Competitions are run annually to encourage practical and innovative glove design. The brief was to design fashion gloves with a symbolic message.   The 2017 competition winners will be presented with their prizes at a lunch at Plaisterers’ Hall in the City of London in July. This was the first year that the RSN Degree Students have entered this competition.

Angie Wyman, Degree Course Leader, said:

“This is a fantastic achievement for our students to gain national recognition of their work at such an early stage in their studies. These successes also affirm the quality of the learning experience that we provide on the Degree Programme.”
