Orana Student
Orana Fashion Business College

“Forming friendships with fellow students and collaborating is my favourite part as well as meeting different industry trainers, utilising the studio space more on shoot week and having the support & sometimes a good chat with the lovely Orana support! Orana is definitely I could say my second home.”

Tell us a little bit about your journey to become a fashion student.

To enrol in Orana it happened actually by an ad on Instagram stories it was time when everything closed down due to covid I got out of the modelling industry. I knew that at some point I had to give up modelling however I did not want to leave the fashion industry itself that is why I started looking educational providers around the world and reading about them. When flicking through Instagram the ad popped by and I decided to check the website, the values in what Orana speak pushed me into enrolling with them.
