Local girl of 22 years Jasmin Ferguson returned to the island last July after 4 years away in London studying at the London college of Fashion, part of University of the Arts London.
Having completed a foundation diploma in Art & Design there, she then moved on to a Foundation Degree in pattern cutting finishing up at LCF with a BA (Hons) degree in Fashion Design Technology Womenswear. This is where she made her graduate collection, which was a womenswear collection of 8 outfits, based on a yin yang theme of opposites working together in harmony, shown here.
“I have been really lucky since finishing my collection to have it featured as part of a few media opportunities, the first being an Ivy and Gold music video with the lead singer wearing one of my dresses and a few pieces of my collection were also used in the Clothes Show Live 2013 “bright young things” ad campaign.” Jasmin told Gallery.
A selection of Jasmin’s work has been available for sale at Pretty Vacant in St Helier ‘thanks to wonder Louise Evans’ and she’s ecstatic that islanders have had the opportunity to own some of the collection. Currently working as a design and technology technician at Haute Vallee School, Jasmin is enjoying being able to teach GCSE textiles and is hoping to continue this as well as designing, making and selling her clothes here in Jersey.
