The headline movement away from grant funding to student fees provided through the Student Loan Company was well signposted, but with all such structural change the devil was in the detail, and there was a great deal of detail, much of it altering as we progressed through the academic year. Sadly the unique position of specialist Nicholas Durbridge institutions often appeared to be considered after the event, as Chairman with the late realisation that recruitment by ‘A’ level results is not a criteria by which we select our students.

  • Caryn Franklin Is the Former I-D Fashion Editor Who Helped Bridge
    i-d live.qxd:Layout 2 29/01/2009 15:26 Page 232 i-D LIVE Caryn Franklin is the former i-D Fashion Editor who helped bridge the avant garde with the mainstream, when she took the role as presenter of The Clothes Show in 1986, a role she continues to this day with The Clothes Show Live. Interview Tricia Jones Introduction Ben Reardon WITH HER HEAD WRAPS and crazy clothes, Caryn Franklin blended cultures in one fashion look and represented London street fashion, the catwalk and the experimental, always in a cerebral and conscious way. Like a fashion superhero, Caryn used her powers for the greater good of mankind using her lofty fashion kudos and second to none knowledge to help raise awareness for worthwhile causes including Breast Cancer, eating disorders and size issues. Turning 50 this year, Caryn is looking better than ever, with her streak of grey hair and strong sense of style empowering women up and down the land. To prove the point, we asked some of Britain’s most important designers and editors what Caryn means to them and why she is important for British Fashion and caught up with the fantastic lady herself to speak about Jeff Banks, shaved heads and plastic surgery. When did you first become aware of fashion? I was aware of the power of clothes quite early on, because my mum was a great dressmaker and she occasionally dressed us all in identical clothes. I am the oldest of four sisters, and at nine, I would wear the same as my little sister who was still in nappies! In my passive aggressive way I would sabotage the look by wearing black plimsoles while all the others wore neat white sandals with their dresses.
