St Andrew's Charity Fashion Show
The St Andrews Charity Fashion Show is one of the largest and most successful student-run fashion shows in the UK. Entering our 33rd edition, we invite you to join us for FS2025. Here you will find information on our philosophy, events and charitable impact.
FS merges fashion with charity, enabling students to express their creativity while supporting important causes. To date, we have donated over half a million pounds to numerous worthwhile organisations. To raise funds, FS hosts three annual events: Starfields music festival in September, F4TE (Fashion for the Earth) Week in November, and the St Andrews Charity Fashion Show in February.
Since 2020, FS has placed particular emphasis on sustainability. As a fashion focused organisation, we recognise our responsibility to protect the planet and challenge the detrimental environmental and humanitarian impacts of the industry at large. We aim to create impactful collaborations with charitable partners that embody our ethos and we look forward to welcoming you to FS2025.Kerry McNeely & Charlotte Keller

Beyond Borders - Dazed x BFC Competition
BEYOND BORDERS BRIEF: DESIGN
Explore the notion of ‘Beyond Borders’ uniting with the storytelling of Dazed Autumn 2023
September issue, which allows the opportunity to bring personal experience and inspiration
together in a melting pot of creativity, reflecting the multicultural essence of creative
communities.
Using this as the central theme, working as a designer, produce an outcome that fulfils your own
interpretation of ‘Beyond Borders’. Use your own identity and personal experiences to inform
your work. Ideas presented should feel distinct and personal; will your work centre around a
muse? Or will this take a more cerebral approach? Consider what makes your work and idea of
‘Beyond Borders’ unique.
For the project, you have been granted access to the Digital Dazed Media Archive, featuring
digital Dazed magazines on Exact Editions containing both archived and new content which you
can use as a research resource. Select the “library card” option in the top right-hand corner.
Use login code 453672 to access the archive HERE.
Your project should include:
•A capsule collection consisting of 6 full looks (drawn or digitally rendered in a final line up).
•A strong narrative that explores the theme. Your proposal should take us through your thinking,
documenting your inspiration and introduce us to your idea.
•Research should inform colour, fabric, print, details and silhouette. Leading to a collection with
a balanced range that includes different types of garments such as tailoring, knit, denim etc.
Consider textile development, fabrication techniques and desirability of your pieces.
•The research should also inspire how the collection is presented, from the project portfolio,
mood boards, to the shoot idea and casting etc.

Taking forward our concept based on the picture layering photographic technique called Double Exposure. I decided to overlay the main silhouettes that ruled over the forties: military garment with a focus on british women's uniforms ( WAAF )and Dior's Corolle (New Look) collection.

Blackout - Narcissus





This S/S collection took inspiration from traditional practices of Maroon tribes of Guiana. Their communicative art known as Tembé is intricately infused with various moiré patterns to be included as a print element in the project.Guiana is the home of a vast amount of people from different ethnicities and/or nationalities. Recently, due to socio-political reasons, tensions between groups have been slowly emerging. In an attempt at reconciliation, this collection named DAЇ ATI revolves around the following three words : Solidarity, Discussion, Friendship and their Tembé symbolics.
