The Duchess of Edinburgh showed her passion for fashion when she visited the London Fashion College’s new East Bank campus this week.
Sophie, who is patron of the prestigious institution, had the opportunity to meet staff and students preparing to become the future leaders of the industry.
The Duchess toured the Graduate Class of 2024 exhibition, where she was able to admire the creations of students from a range of disciplines, including fashion artifacts, fashion photography and performance costume design.
She was also interested in the work being done in the Digital Learning Lab, where she watched a digital fitting, which allows the final result of a design to be visualized without having to make it.
Prince Edward’s wife not only represented the royal household with her presence, but also became a style reference with her impeccable wardrobe choices.
