Summer 2011. The new chapter of Central Saint Martins history starts. The historic and important college will move from its Soho site and join other branches of Central Saint Martins in a new purpose-built development in King’s Cross.
As it is the end of an era for this legendary institution, I have found it meaningful to make a documentary film about the art college and the old St Martins school building on Charing Cross Road.
Today we interviewed the legendary Bobby Hilson in her apartament at Battersea park, she studied fashion at Saint Martins in 1950s and then worked as illustraitor at Vogue in 50s and 60s and then came back to Saint Martins to start fashion MA course. Well here are some pics …
