Adam Smith College’s hair and beauty students’ latest catwalk extravaganza featured on Maltese TV at the behest of the country’s president.
Students and staff from the Fife college’s hair and beauty department travelled to Malta as part of the Leonardo Project, an EU initiative giving students the chance to gain industry experience at the Malta College of Arts, Science and Technologies, and Arhus Tech in Denmark.
The fashion show held at the college was even broadcast on national TV.
The president of Malta, Dr George Abela, marked the 10th anniversary of the show by inaugurating the proceedings.
Christina Laing, hair and beauty manager, said, “This project has seen our students learn the many skills required to work on live projects at an international level.
“The students have been challenged with delivering events which have included live hair and fashion shows and a location photoshoot.”
She added, “This type of experiential learning offers added value to our students who have all benefited immensely from being involved with the Leonardo Project.”
The event was part of the final cultural visit of the two-year creative exchange project, where students and staff from colleges in Malta, Scotland and Denmark designed garments, dressed hair and applied make-up for the models.
