伦敦艺术大学广州招生代表处 | 2021-06-23

在经历了漫长的封锁生活、远程工作的日子后，伦敦艺术大学中央圣马丁艺术学院终于迎来了久违的实体时装秀。在这场盛大的时装秀上，今年即将毕业的时尚设计本科（BA Fashion）学生们逐一在T台上展示了自己的作品。秀场的布置也独具特色，有用织物边角料拼凑制成装饰、有大型雕塑和气垫，还有一只巨大的充气鸭子。

时尚设计本科的课程主任Sarah Gresty对这场时装秀给予了很高的评价：

“昨天，我们全体师生聚集在一起，庆祝大家在这精彩的最后一年（大三）取得的成就——特别是在去年的限制和挑战之下。这是一次令人振奋、令人难忘的经历。我为每个人感到无比自豪。”

女装设计专业（BA Fashion: Fashion Design Womenswear）的学生Seli Arku-Korsi获得了本年度的欧莱雅新秀奖（L'Oréal Professionnel Young Talent Award），他谈到了作品的灵感和获奖的感受：

“我的作品反映了我对生活经历的感受。在过去的一年里，我遇到了一些困难。我因为新冠病毒失去了母亲，这让我的精神状态出现了一种断裂感，再加上我与自身疾病的斗争，我变得很难清楚地观察或思考。因此，我在我的系列作品中用了一种有立体感的“海市蜃楼”印花，体现了我的一种朦胧迷茫的心态。我非常感谢这个奖项，这是一个很大的鼓励，激励我继续从灵魂中生产艺术，不要浪费每一天。”

On a catwalk laid with a giant, collective patchwork, our graduating BA Fashion students revealed their work to the world.

In a welcome return to physical shows, each one of our graduating BA Fashion students presented a look on the catwalk. The scene was dressed with a patchwork constructed from leftover fabrics, giant sculptures of pin cushions and scissors, all finished with a huge inflatable duck.

We all came together yesterday as one community of students and staff to celebrate the achievements of our wonderful final year – especially considering the limitations and challenges the last year has brought. It was a joyous, uplifting, memorable experience. I am incredibly proud of everyone.

— Sarah Gresty, Course Leader, BA Fashion

Seli Arku-Korsi, BA Fashion: Fashion Design Womenswear, was announced as the winner of this year's L'Oréal Professionnel Young Talent Award.

The inspiration for my work comes directly from my artworks which are an expression of what I experience in life. Particularly in the past year I had faced some hardship. I had lost my mum to COVID which created a kind of fracture in my state of mind, coupled with struggling with addiction, it made it all the more difficult for me to see or think clearly. So the 3D-like mirage prints in my collection represent just that: a hazy and unclear state of mind. I am very grateful for this award. It is an encouragement, an encouragement to keep producing from the soul and not to let a day go to waste.

The joint first runners-up are Karina Bondareva, BA Fashion: Fashion Print and Dylan Etienne-Ramsay, BA Fashion: Fashion Design with Marketing. The joint second runners-up are Ellen Poppy Hill, BA Fashion: Fashion Design with Marketing and Jamie Howes, BA Fashion: Fashion Knitwear. The judges for the 2021 Award were: talent agent Camilla Lowther, visual storyteller Harris Elliott, designer and alum Matty Bovan, fashion editor Jeanie Annan-Lewin and BA Fashion Course Leader Sarah Gresty.

In i-D, Mahoro Seward and Osman Ahmed wrote:

Of course, given that these are the young fashion superstars of tomorrow, it goes without saying that the work on display grappled with the most pressing issues facing fashion today. Most of the designers can tell you the myriad ways they've sought out solutions to fashion's endemic waste and excess, and many of the collections took a hand-crafted approach to textiles. Themes of decolonialism, gender identity, body distortion and innovative artisanal techniques also rose to the fore, and it was truly diverse as a result.

While in Vogue, Sarah Mower summed up the show as:

A collective triumph of youth and creativity over the adversity and trauma of a year of struggle, it had all the thrill of a grand fashion reunion for the hundred students who each walked in their own looks – and for the widely-spaced audience who hadn't seen a live fashion show in so, so long.
