LINE, the University of Warwick's Fashion & Fine Art Society, presented its annual runway show where creativity, ambitions and charity intersect.
The 2023 theme, "Fall From Grace," delved into societal issues, beauty and the self through 35 handcrafted designs by 18 emerging designers.
Each set of 5 outfits is a reflection of either a classic sin (2 outfits), its modern opposite (2 outfits) or its coping mechanism (1 outfit), all woven together in a thought-provoking narrative.
The show aimed to provide a platform for artistic expression and collaboration between students of the University of Warwick.
In collaboration with VIOU, the official live streaming platform of FALL FROM GRACE.
