FASION STUNT: With students Angie Hayward, Nathalie Hutchenson and Charlotte Chungh.

FASHION students in Southampton were today playing the dummy - helping out at charity shops in the city.

The Southampton Institute degree students have borrowed some shop dum-mies to help provide the shops' window displays with the latest fashion look, which will encourage customers. The first-year fashion promotion studies group and shop managers are hoping the new look will help boost sales during the six-day display time.
