Quotes from the press about the Fashion course success in the Scottish Fashion Awards 2012



Judy R Clark


"I noted a wealth of the SFA talent, from graduates to designers, have all been down to good old Galashiels to study at Heriot Watt University where I once studied myself, a great university which is sending the Scottish fashion elite out in force!"

I am so proud to say that these are the students that have been noticed for their hard work by

"Shame to see David Black miss out on Scottish Graduate of the year, 
but Joanne Mcgillivary was a worthy winner"
