University of Derby BA (Hons) Fashion Studies student Hannah Hoyle has been named as the Student Young Designer of the Year 2007 at the Clothes Show - and her work was inspired by Marilyn Monroe.

Hannah clinched the prestigious award at the NEC in Birmingham - successfully beating nine other finalists. Fellow Derby student Sarah Maguire, also made it to the national final. The show is one of Europe's biggest fashion events.

Hannah commented saying "It's capped off a wondeful year winning this title - having designed clothes for John Lewis as well."
