“The purpose of this project was to create an ensemble that ties in with the 150 years of excellence and to use a sustainability method. I focused my work on presenting my family's story from being in Sudan and our travels to find a new home as the war raged on. I used emotional storytelling to create my look as well as using patternmaking a draping skill. The result turned out to be an excellent way to show my family’s origins and the peaceful life we lived before the split of our county.”
