STUDENTS from an art college are to display their work on the catwalk.
More than 100 costumes will be appearing on the catwalk thanks to pupils at Cleveland College of Art and Design.
The evening of extravagance and entertainment will be staged at The Grand Hotel, Hartlepool, on Friday, May 29.
Hosted by the BBC’s Tim Vine, the event is already a sell out. Organised by tutors Julie Archer, Jane Havarkin and Norman Austick, it will feature costumes designed and produced by talented students from all three years of the BA Hons entertainment design crafts and costume construction for stage and screen course.
Lecturer Mr Austick said: "The evening will be a fabulous showcase for all our students’ talents and skills which will help them to take a step forward into the industry.
"The audience will be blown away by the diverse range of large and outrageous costumes they have produced. It’s going to be great fun and a very entertaining evening."
The show will also feature examples of tailoring, millinery, regency style garments, west end night costumes and designs inspired from Shakespeare to modern day musicals.
