Oaklands College fashion show at St Albans Cathedral

The weekend display showcased talents from the Art, Fashion and Design Department at the college, which has campuses in St Albans and Welwyn Garden City.

Following the show, garments worn were sold to the audience, raising over £500 for Cancer Research.

The ancient cathedral served as the backdrop of the last days of the Peace Doves installation by international artist and sculptor Peter Walker, where thousands of paper doves hung from the Cathedral tower.

A total of 26 students took part in the fashion extravaganza, including 13 models.

Fashion student Moesha Moore said: "This was an exhilarating experience because it was exciting and atmospheric. I really appreciate this fantastic opportunity and collaboration."

The team included Sabrina Warsame as creative director, Archie Holden Field as assistant creative director, and Zipporah Emrick as head model.

Senior Garment Techs were Elana Connoley and Maddie Howards, while Manuchathip Nanpheng assumed the role of head dresser.

Oaklands College's forthcoming events include its popular Lambing Weekend in March.

Before that, the annual WolfPack day on February 19 gives young sportspersons the chance to trial for a place in their elite sporting academies.

This offers prospective students the chance to showcase their sporting skills, a taste of college life and an opportunity to meet with lecturers to choose the correct course.

A Hockey Camp hosted by Oaklands Wolves is scheduled for February 20, designed for nine to 19 year olds of all playing abilities.

The cost for a full day at the camp is £50.
