Click image to view GalleryKing's College London recently commissioned Dame Vivienne to design a range of graduation gowns and these were presented for the first time at a catwalk show featuring students from the college, with the designer taking centre stage.
Congo Blue rolled into gear with one of our custom stage designs. The plan was to create a white contemporary set to contrast with the oak-floored Great Hall. In addition to the stage, we provided a dressing room and lighting, while the college provided 'in-house' sound.
The Lighting design was based on 24 Source Four Pars lighting the models, with our stocks of LED lights used to add colour. The set was up-lit by 1 metre long LED battens, the catwalk and audience seating were coloured with LED 'Bricks' and the lighting truss above the stage was highlighted by LED Pars.
