The Textiles team are delighted to be able to share the photos of Sofia (Lower V) pictured recently at Royal Ascot, wearing her competition winning design.

Her design was brought to life by the reputed British luxury fashion brand LK Bennett and her hat was selected from a range by the Royal Ascot Millinery Collective.

As part of this unique Fashion Design Enrichment Programme, Sofia will also gain invaluable industry experience spending a week in the design studio at the company’s HQ.

We hope that she will gain further insight into the creative industries and enjoy every minute of her success. Well done, Sofia!
