Georgie had a magical work experience in the Costume Department at Queensland Ballet with the performance of Coco Chanel: the Life of a Fashion Icon. Even got to sew the exquisite buttons onto the Coco Chanel ballet costumes and watch the dress rehearsal. With the attendance of Georgie doing the Cert 111 in Apparel, Fashion & Textiles at Tafe and then a Costume Design course in Melbourne she is certainly on her way to her dream profession.
