or something else , we will see . Denmark is such a small market , so I will definitely try to push abroad when the time comes .
7 . How was your TEKO experience so far ? Continuing the BA studies in the same institution was a personal decision based on your preference or one demanded by circumstances ? So far I ’ ve been happy with my studies . I ’ ve learned a lot , but sometimes it ’ s really a struggle . When we ’ re doing design projects , we often have to work late nights and weekends to meet the deadlines . The planning is terrible and so is the communication . I don ’ t know if they ’ re doing it on purpose to reflect the “ real life ” in the fashion industry . TEKO was my first choice when applying for the BA course . It ’ s regarded as the best fashion school in Scandinavia , so despite its location , it ’ s a good place to study . Also I ’ ve seen the development that the former BA students went through , and I would like that to happen to me too .
8 . What ’ s your best advice for a fashion student ? Be a rebel ! Don ’ t try to fit in . Do your own thing and embrace your mistakes as valuable lessons . Creativity comes from within , and cannot be taught . Therefore I wouldn ’ t recommend putting blind trust in any teacher , guide or whoever tells you what to do . Let your heart make the final decisions .
