The last Thursday of
term, we had an outside study trip which was really
interesting. We were outside to carry out a special
project which Vicci gave us. That project was original
and attractive: making fashion designs with materials
which are not fabric. So, each of us had to think of
some convenient
materials which we could use.
|
 |
Lan Anh chose buttons, Thao’s material
was labels, Tu liked sleeping mats… In general, it was
really interesting. If I only had one word to describe
my class’s collection, I would use “search”. We walked
to look for materials and places to take picture. We
walked around the centre of Ha Noi.
|
|
 |
|
Finally, we chose the special spot. It
was convenient for our designs.On that day, Trung/Bob
became a professional photographer. He chose backgrounds
and different points of view for each shot. Poor Tu,
that day she was our model. The weather was so cold but
she wore only thin clothes

We were careful to choose the view, sight,
style for the design. Sometimes, we had to take a lot
pictures. Some of us were very fastidious but finally we had
many great photos and we were satisfied. Moreover, I think
this was a good experience for our future careers

Finally, after
3 hot summer months, now I am finally becoming a first year
student of LCFS. I’ve wished I would be a professional designer
since I was a child. It grew and grew and now it has become my
aim. I choose to be a designer. Not like Mai, my classmate, who
is a famous designer and has joined international fashion. My
dream is smaller and simpler. Perhaps, I am not a highly
ambitious person. |
|
Perhaps because this is the first time and
we weren’t used to our new school. By the afternoon, we had
started to make friends and we felt more relaxed because we were
drawing. Vicci requested us to observe the model and not look at
our paper. All the pictures looked so terrible. But from that
point the class atmosphere became more friendly, comfortable.
Everyone looked though each others pictures and we
|
|
With me, simply, I want to see other people
wearing my clothes. Maybe, my wish is commonplace. But it would
give me great pleasure and happiness. It would mean my designs
were accepted and everyone loves my talent. The opening ceremony
was short but solemn. The first time in LCFS was pleasant and
comfortable, not stressful or any pressure. I got to know all
about the teachers and was informed about the regulations when I
started. |
 |
all laughed together. After a week I feel that
learning here is not simple. We have to work hard. Everyday, we
learn much information in all of the subjects: fashion business,
design, patterns, western cultural studies, sewing… all students
need to research, search information and practice. Teacher only
introduce and teach the methods. At the end of this term, we
have to finish our designs and make them.. This outfit will be
our result after 3 months. |
|
I was so
impressed with the names of each class. The first year, the
students are split into two classes. Mine is named after the
famous brand Chanel, the other is Chloe. The second year is
called McQueen. LCFS is so fashionable. On the first day, we
learned Design & Illustration from Ms Vicci. The class was so
quiet and not active. |
|
I really feel enthusiastic with this design
project. However, besides I feel worried and anxious. What is
the reason of that feeling? Yes, I guest that is because of
strange. But I think that I will try my best to get the
successful result. And I believe with my attempt I will have a
perfect design. I hope and believe that I will be successful. |

When we think about female dominant fields like cooking or
fashion design, we always assume that a great chef or a
well-known designer must be a woman. In fact, no, I can
guarantee that the majority of cooks in many 5-star hotels are
men. Things are similar in fashion industry nowadays, there are
many famous male designers such as Ralph Lauren, Paul Smith,
Alexander Mc. Queen, etc.
At LCFS, the number of male students is relatively
small. However, the tiny number does not reflect their
talents and they are devoted to their work here.
In this newsletter , we would like to introduce
you to Blade and Loi.

Nguyễn Hữu Lợi successfully finished his
first year and left a good impression on the teachers and
his classmates. All lecturers were totally surprised at
Loi’s progress and highly appreciative of his hard work.
At the start of year 1, Loi always avoided meeting and
talking to foreign lecturers, but at the last final
exam, he confidently delivered a presentation in English
in front of all lecturers without any extra helps.
Before coming to LCFS, he took a course on professional make
up. He has had a chance to prove his talent by doing the
make-up for models for LCFS’s fashion show held in Sheraton
Hotel last February.
He admitted that he was an ambitious man, because he had so
many plans and ideas in his mind. He would like to do
research on Vietnam collection grand prix as well as make
new plans for coming term at LCFS. He hopes to gain great
results in the contest and in the new term.

Wang Jun – Blade, a Chinese student who is in term 3 at
LCFS. His nickname Blade is the result of all the competition
and awards that he had won for fencing. During his mid term
holiday, he went back to China and worked as salesman for the
Ever - Glory International Group Corporation - a well-known
garment factory in China. His main duties were collecting
customer orders and doing customer services. After the holiday,
he told us that he had applied much
of the knowledge gained in LCFS to his job.
|
 |
|
Subjects on garment history, fashion business, pattern cutting
and English helped him a lot. He said it’s really hard to
satisfy customers nowadays because you have a lot of competitors
and customers always test your company’s ability before putting
orders in your hands.
Wang Jun has came back to school. His practical experiences
really made students of term 3 excited. He planned to work full
time for the group after the graduation.
