Rare chance to snap up fabulous fashions

STUDENTS WILL STAGE POP BOUTIQUE OF THEIR DESIGNS TO RAISE CASH FOR CHARITY

Published: 12/03/2010

STYLISH clothes by some of Scotland’s top young designers will be on sale for a limited time in Aberdeen this weekend.

Fashion students from Edinburgh’s Heriot-Watt University designed the garments, which will be sold to help raise money for charity.

Jackets, T-shirts, dresses and jewellery can all be bought at a “pop boutique” showcase at Harley Clothing, in Aberdeen’s Schoolhill.

The students will donate 20% of their profits to north-east social care charity VSA.

The clothes will be on sale at the shop tomorrow and Sunday, from 11am until 5pm.

The entire ground floor of the store will be devoted to the temporary display, which will also include artwork designed by the students.

VSA development director Alan Reid said: “When we were approached by the students at Heriot-Watt University we were obviously thrilled that they had decided to link up with VSA during their weekend event.

“Through many of our projects we realise the importance of the younger generation and, aside from their generous pledge, we are keen to help the team in any way we can.”
