Glasgow fashion show to showcase student designs using an iconic Scottish material.

Harris Tweed Hebrides has donated 100 metres of Harris Tweed® cloth to Glasgow Caledonian University's annual Fashion Showcase on June 10.

Students used the donation to develop outfits and accessories for a Nike X Harris Tweed capsule collection.

The fashion showcase provides an opportunity for students to model their creations in front of the public.

It is set to feature more than 75 student designs, with free tickets for the afternoon and evening catwalks available via Eventbrite.
