Arielle Uno-Ekwang, a Fashion with Business Studies BA(Hons) graduate, is one of six trainees beginning a “nine-month paid training journey that will see participants immersed in responsible design and craftsmanship principles”.

The scheme is part of a Yoox Net-A-Porter (YNAP) partnership with The King’s Foundation’s initiative to nurture emerging talent and promote sustainability.

Applications came from over 60 graduates from more than 30 fashion schools across the UK, with over 30% from backgrounds traditionally underrepresented in the industry.

Congratulations to Arielle!
