i think you can probably submit pre-existing if it works for you!

I think so, it doesn't specify fashion so I'm pretty sure it can be anything?

The email says views on contemporary fashion so i think we can include any experiences or things we have learnt in fashion...trying to pick a topic is hard lol

hey guys,

I've applied for UCA, LCF, Sunderland, Southampton and London Met!
I've had offers from UCA, Southampton and Sunderland, but haven't heard from the others apart from an email from LCF saying about correspondances in February and I submitted a piece to London Met but haven't heard from them yet (:
is anyone in the same situation as me?

I'm struggling with the brief. When it says contemporary fashion, does that mean we can write about current fashion issues like celebrity vogue covers or does it have to be about the topic itself e.g. aesthetic of contemporary brands?

@withlove I really do not think it's a great idea to write about celebrity fashion..I have read people dismiss essays that are written about just Vogue covers and celebrity matters, I think aesthetic of contemporary brands is the idea but you gotta be more original and write about a topic that captivates their interest
