Christina Tweedie Studying for a career in Fashion Design
My interest in fashion came from my own hobby . I was cosplaying , and I wanted to learn how to make the costumes . So , I entered the HND : Fashion Design Production with Retail course at Fife College and that is where I blossomed and where my shift changed towards fashion .
I learnt a few things about the fashion industry and how it is the second biggest pollutant , and from this I wanted to make a change within the fashion industry on how we can make it more sustainable .
This course helped me prepare for a career in the fashion and retail industry , and I am now studying Fashion Design with Business at Glasgow Caledonian University .
