It’s fair to say that Freshers’ Week is hands down one of the most exciting things at uni. There’s only one other thing that comes close: Fashion in the Forum. In the most exciting crossover since Greggs and Primark, we’ve brought you a Freshers’ Week Fashion in the Forum extravaganza.

Freshers are mingling in a bid to make friends for life, whilst returning students aim to impress their past flings with some fire fits, so it comes as no surprise that the Forum has become a hotspot for finding the coolest fashion on campus, and the Freshers’ Fair providing the perfect opportunity to stand out. We’ve loved the array of bright colours and funky patterns on show:

Why did their outfits stand out?

Both Lily and Morgan were wearing outfits that were relaxed yet cool – it was refreshing to see a chilled outfit during freshers week as it shows you don’t have to wear extravagant clothes to impress. In particular, Lily’s jumper was the perfect level of comfort and Morgan’s Carharrt hoodie paired with his bag and trousers made for a  vibey streetwear look!

What is your favourite part of your outfit?

Lily: My socks – they’re so comfortable and warm.

Morgan: My Greggs Crocs because they’re quirky and I think they add some comedic flair to my outfit.

Do you feel a pressure to look good during Freshers’ Week?

*Intensionally sarcastic* we don’t feel pressured, we just look good without trying  (we aren’t arrogant, we promise!)

Nnemdi, fresher,…
