New inspiration pics..

 
 
I've been taking pics for new inspiration, it is a continuation of my graduate collection just more sleek and clean. I'm thinking I might try some truly minimal designs, simple lines and minimal detail focusing on shapes taken from my grad collection and re worked into wearable outerwear....
 
 
 
 
 
 
I am really drawn to structure and architecture, however I like to put my own abstract and obscure angle on things.... Above is a picture taken of the bottom of the Shard building in London. An amazing structure but looking closer even the details and linearity at the bottom is beautiful in my eye....
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The above picture was taken from a window at the Freemasons Hall in Queen Street London. I was a dresser for a London Fashion Week show there and saw it as an opportunity to take some pics and just so happened to see this out the window! Again I'm drawn to the linear details and obscurity of this otherwise bland architecture... 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The above was taken inside the fashion show venue (Freemasons Hall) and I loved the mix of the old paintings with such a modern twist with the structure of the lights and framework ready for the show.....
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This final pic was taken on Oxford St London. It kind of speaks for itself... Linear, structure, reflection, its got it all!! I also love the colours and will be reverting back to this when I come to colour palette decisions....

I haven't posted on here for awhile but I intend to keep it a bit more up to date from now on! Having completed my final collection and show cased it on the catwalk at Free Range graduate shows I am now considering a new collection of uni sex tailored jackets and coats as well as some accompanying garments. I have also been working on some new bag designs and will be uploading some pics of these new designs soon so stay tuned for things to come.... For now though here are some much belated pics from the fashion show, and my final design work for my graduate collection...
 
 
Woollen maxi skirt and structured gilet with leather panels...
This outfit is structural yet flattering with the long straight skirt...






Final collection lineup, iNTROSPECTION, structured tailoring with  soft folds and elegant silhouettes..
These images were taken during the catwalk show at Free Range.....







  
Inspiration... pics taken by me of various structures and architecture which inspire my silhouettes...
My colour choices also naturally come from these images... They reflect the clean, clinical style of the collection and give a cool and minimal feel to it...






Soft folds and structured tailored midi dress...






                  Structured back top with soft structural folds. Paired with a panelled midi skirt...





My artistic interpretation of the collection.... minimal, structured, clinical...






Pics from the catwalk...




 
I think this is one of my favourite outfits of the collection, the simple and minimal design gives off a flattering silhouette. Sometimes the simpler the better....
