The main focus of the project was to make a 'Fashion Statement' and hold a celebration event. The exhibition at the Canalside Heritage Centre showcases what was produced at the event. The dress on display was made by the group and consists of individually made panels, with meaningful words and images and sewn together to make a whole garment. International Women's Day is held every year on 8th March to celebrate women's achievements, raise awareness about discrimination and to take action to drive gender parity. Manage Cookie Preferences
