After a tough 18 months, we were hugely excited to be able to hold our degree Graduation ceremonies again.
In early November, the Class of 2020 and Class of 2021 graduated from the Fashion Retail Academy. The ceremonies were held at the beautiful Goldsmith's Hall in London, close to St Paul's Cathedral. Our graduates and their families were invited to an afternoon or evening ceremony, with drinks receptions after to catch up with their tutors and friends.
The Class of 2020 enjoyed a speech from Nick Beighton, former CEO of ASOS. The Class of 2021 heard from Lord Stuart Rose, one of the founding partners of the Fashion Retail Academy. Both cohorts also heard from Kim Longman (Chair of the FRA) and our Principal, Lee Lucas. There were also fantastic speeches from:
Congratulations again to all our wonderful graduates. We wish you all the best of luck with your careers, and look forward to welcoming you back to the FRA as a Visiting Industry Expert in future!
We hope you have a wonderful festive break and a very happy new year!
Real-world experience is a big part of what we offer at the FRA. That's why some of our diploma students recently visited Vogue's Inventing the Runway exhibition - an immersive event that brought the creativity of fashion shows to life.
