Julia Maclean-Evans, programme leader BA (Hons) Fashion Design, said: "The BA(Hons) Fashion Design programme fosters a diverse, creative learning environment where students can develop into confident, specialised fashion designers.
"This year's graduating students have imaginatively honoured and learned from fashion and cultural traditions whilst looking to the future, learning to balance originality of concept with design viability.
"Many have also used their role as emergent designers to shape and lead on ethical, sustainable and responsible fashion design practices."
The 2025 fashion show is sponsored by Moda.
