With a splash of colour and a swagger of imagination, Graduate Fashion Week's final show came from Westminster University. Industry recruitrs were out in force in Battersea Park to see the students' work.

Sally Pang showed real creativity with dresses of multi-coloured frayed silk comprised of hanky-sized fabric stitched together to create a light and puffy silhouette. Luoise Taylor sent out a body consious collection of ruffle-front shirts and dresses made out of rubber.

Bronagh Holme;s all black quilted leather trousers, catsuits, Perspex corsets and nets shrugs had a bondage feel.

Julia Ison-Sterier won the university's collection of the year award, judged by Stuart Vevers and Carrie Mundane, for her day-Glo sportswear.
