Elle Gilbert

Hello,

I'm a 18 year old university student studying a Bachelor of Creative Industries majoring in Fashion and Journalism. My passions are in fashion and DIY and I adore cats.

I dream of travelling overseas and working in magazines and one day settling down in London. My dream career would be working for an independently owned fashion/art magazine like Frankie or Peppermint to name a few Australian publications.

I love how fashion is a way to express yourself and I do believe that it is an art form in itself. Combining my love of fashion and art naturally has led me to DIY and i enjoy experimenting with different materials to make quirky accessories and remodelling old clothes into new items.

I currently work for McDonalds which although has provided me with good opportunities in the customer service area and has taught me an endless amount about patience, I feel ready to move on to bigger and better things, closer to my interests. To be able to support myself though uni, working in the fashion or print industry would be a dream come true.
