THE revelation that Prime Minister Tony Abbott’s daughter Frances won a $60,000 scholarship to the prestigious Whitehouse Institute of Design has caused a furore this week.

Her fellow classmates spoke out today, sharing their disappointment that she had been given the leg-up when the college told other students that there were no scholarships for the Bachelor of Design course.

News.com.au tracked down some of Frances’s major works from her time at the college, which she has posted on the site Holla Mary which is a play on her middle name Mary. She brands her creative work with the tag Franny Made.

The zines, which she has named EVA, show off her graphic design, writing, styling and illustration skills.
