AN EYE for fashion could earn a North-East designer £100,000 this month.
Fiona Sinha, of Jesmond, Newcastle, is through to the final stages of the Fashion Fringe search for Britain's most talented young designer.
Ms Sinha, who runs label Sinhastanic with friend Sasa Stanic, said: "Sasa and I have always worked towards starting our own label. I hope that Fashion Fringe will be the start of this."
Ms Sinha is one of ten finalists. They will be whittled down to a shortlist of four later this month, before the winner is announced at the end of the month.
Entrants had to submit sketches for a spring/summer 2005 collection.
They also had to impress the judges with their business acumen
