Isabella Smith

As a Central Saint Martins BA Fashion and Art Foundation Graduate with over 6 years working in the Fashion industry across London and Paris, including at brands such as Givenchy and Maison Margiela I understand at every level not only getting the best exam grades possible, but the process of growing and translating your skills that you can take with you throughout your career.

I have a forward-looking approach that centres on facilitating my students' creative journey, helping them discover their distinct voice in their work, and push them to the next stage!

My tutorials are aimed at those aiming to continue into higher education or a career in Art, Fashion and Design, or those currently studying GCSE and A Level Art and Textiles. They are tailored to what each student is looking to focus on, from coursework or portfolio reviews to guided projects and drawing/making sessions. I have a practical and friendly approach to my lessons, aiming to work with each individual’s learning style.

Alongside my tutoring work I also have my own fashion brand which most recently showed my AW/23 collection at The 180 Strand in London and has been featured in Vogue, Dazed, Harpers Bazaar, SHOWstudio, V Magazine, Sixteen Magazine and more.

I received A* grades at GCSE and A level, as well as a First-Class Honours degree in Fashion Design with Print from Central Saint Martins, and a distinction from their Foundation program. During my applications process I also gained places at Ravensbourne and Kingston Universities- all programs I applied to.
