Fashion and retail students style windows for Debenhams

BTEC National Diploma Fashion and Fashion Retail Diploma students from New College Nottingham (ncn) were invited to showcase their flair for style by dressing two Debenhams window displays, for a promotional 'off the catwalk' event in the Nottingham store on Saturday 28th February.

The fashion students chose garments and accessories from Debenhams’ own Redherring brand to create an evening wear window, and the fashion retail students used their visual merchandising skills to choose and style daytime casual wear. The students also styled mannequins for the Redherring in store display.

Natasha Lee, Redherring senior sales advisor, said: "We approached ncn because we felt it was a good opportunity for the students to demonstrate their design flair and to gain real life visual merchandising experience.

"They made an excellent job of the window displays and we noticed shoppers admiring their work. The students were very professional and I was impressed with the looks they chose – they represented the Redherring brand well."
