Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth - Erebus

The grads from this year's show for Arts University Bournemouth really knew how to accessorise to complement their collections. This was one of the only schools to show a fair few androgynous collections, having men and women walking for a single collection.

Hamza Hussein

Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth Hamza Hussain - Erebus

The best part of Hamza's collection was the amazing prints she used in her innovative silhouettes. While her collection had a touch of femininity, it did not go quite so far as a few other collections we've seen this week.

Emma Hance

Emma used rouching, gathers and pleats in just the right places to have volume where needed and a sleek fit where appropriate.

Kelly Attenberger

There was a lot of fringe to give this super feminine collection a little bit of a modern, very colourful biker feel. I'm not usually a fan of headpieces as they tend to go horribly wrong, but that was not the case here.

Alix Whitehead

The prints were definitely the strongest part of Alix's collection.

Nicole Thomas

Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth Nicole Thomas - Erebus

Nicole's was the first androgynous collection of many to come down the runway at Bournemouth. The texture, through both the fabric and the prints, were an interesting choice (and I mean that in a good way) for this urban collection.

Eyrun Muller

Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth Eyrun Muller - Erebus

Eyrun's collection was one of those who took some inspiration from a ski weekend and added some city feel. These erotic prints, which it takes a minute to notice, were definitely an interesting touch.

Joe Flanagan

Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth Joe Flanagan - Erebus

The knitwear was the strongest part of Joe's collection, with the major destruction and elongated, oversized silhouettes. There was just the right amount of femininity in this menswear collection.

Hannah West

Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth Hannah West - Erebus

Hannah's all-black collection was an utterly powerful feminine collection. There were fitted bodices with voluminous skirts and dresses. It was all very commercial.

Ericka Santiago

The overall shapes of this collection were a step away from standard, and the bold colour choices really made a statement.

Charlotte Iles

Charlotte's collection was an interesting mix of athletic pieces with more standard feminine attire. The prints and embroidery were an engaging addition.

Kristian Østvik

Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth Kristian Østvik - Erebus

There was another little touch of eroticism in this collection, with one model coming down shirtless and another coming in a longline sweatshirt with a print of a bare torso and legs. It was a fascinating mix of oversized modern streetwear with great bleached denim and this exhibitionist appeal.

Emily Butcher

Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth Emily Butcher - Erebus

I loved these photographic prints on a few of the pieces in Emily's collection, which was a mix of old man sweaters and sweater vests with some more modern urban styles.

Lois Bosatta

Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth Lois Bosatta - Erebus

This was the only children's wear collection to come down the runway for Bournemouth. Like the adult trend, however, it looked inspired by Shackleton's Arctic explorations.

Marko Kis

Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth Marko Kis - Erebus

There were some very obvious Asian influences in Marko's genderless collection, from the sun hats of the fields to the face masks of the streets.

Lucinda Crowhurst

Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth Lucinda Crowhurst - Erebus

Take away the head gear, and this earthy coloured collection is very commercial. The prints were strong and the silhouettes were very flattering.

Daniel Rynne

Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth Daniel Rynne - Erebus

Daniel Rynne was this year's winner of the Debenhams Menswear Award. This collection seemed to be influenced by the workwear of old coal miners.

Eleanor Jane Armstrong

Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth Eleanor Jane Armstrong - Erebus

I absolutely loved this collection. While the palette was a bit too natural for my taste, I love how Eleanor moulded and sculpted the leather to give some toughness to her lace garments.

Yu Lin Fu

Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth Yu Lin Fu - Erebus

Overall, the silhouettes of this androgynous collection were quite masculine while the details added the right amount of femininity. The first shirt dress and the fourth coat are my favourite pieces of the collection.

Sophie Whatling

Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth Sophie Whatling - Erebus

Like many, this collection was meant to show skill, and Sophie's knitwear prowess was on point. 

Kerryanne Cervan

Graduate Fashion Week 2017: Arts University Bournemouth Kerryanne Cervan - Erebus

Kerryanne's all rouge collection was stunning. Every piece was elegant, which is not always easy using stripes and polka dots. Hers was another collection where the headwear perfectly complemented the apparel.

Check out what the grads in 2016 came up with.
