Mandula Pap came to Central Saint Martins and joined the Fashion Mix short course, having never studied fashion before. Mandula left with the start of her fashion portfolio and with plans to apply to study fashion in higher education. She said of the course...
"Having never studied fashion before, the course was a good introduction and I learnt a lot about how a collection is made and put together. Studying at CSM also offered me an insight into how studying at a fashion school would be like."
Where are you from and what's your favourite thing about it?
I am from Budapest, which is a beautiful city. For Londoners I think they would find Budapest small, but it has a lot of wonderful thermal baths, markets, restaurants and bars, as well as ruin bars (set up in the ruins of abandoned buildings, stores or lots).
What short course did you to study upon at Central Saint Martins (CSM)?
I attended the Fashion Mix short course which is taught by the wonderful Audrey Ang!
What did you enjoy most about your short course?
Having never studied fashion before, the course was a good introduction and I learnt a lot about how a collection is made and put together. Studying at CSM also offered me an insight into how studying at a fashion school would be like.
