      Jun 2010 - Aug 2010
      Intern

      As a design intern I learnt about how the mass production side of the fashion industry is run in the UK. I did embroidery designs that were put into production for peacocks. I assisted on many design projects for top shop and river island, creating many sketches for the production teams. I gained valuable knowledge in the textile field as well as the design-costing field.
