Student wins award with cork collection

Sofia Pedro, student of the Pattern Cutting course, received the 3rd prize in the 6th edition of the Cork and Cork Forest Ideas and Creativity Contest, in the subcategory Fashion Coordinates. Her coordinate was paraded in the Coruche Fashion Cork 2023, in the scope of FICOR - International Cork Fair.

<br/>"Remind" is the name of Sofia Pedro's SS23 collection, made up of 3 looks in cork, the basic ecological raw material, and a localized print of baroque paintings.

1. - Long oversized bomber jacket with adjustable hood.
2. - Short oversized bomber jacket with hood.
3. - Oversized hooded sweatshirt.

"I was extremely nervous when they called me on stage. It was recognition of my work and dedication. This is all thanks to the LSD school, teacher Helena Quinan and teacher Luís Emílio who supported me throughout the whole process." 

Congratulations to Sofia, who joins other students who have won prizes in competitions. You can read more here.
