A De Montfort University (DMU) student will see her footwear and bag designs hit the shops next spring after winning a competition to create a collection for Gola’s 2012 range.
Second-year footwear design student Jennifer Brook was one of 36 students on the course challenged by internationally-renowned fashion brand Gola to create designs that bring the rich heritage of the brand’s history into the 21st century.
Jennifer came out on top when she wowed Gola judges with her innovative designs which take inspiration from sports activities such as running, swimming and the long jump. Designs incorporating the layout of running tracks and prints of the words ‘hop’, ‘skip’, and ‘jump’ are key features of the student’s winning collection.
The 22-year-old from Huddersfield will now see her designs in high-street stores worldwide from spring 2012.
