CORRERE X TRAINERS

  • Isabella Pearson

CORRERE: The aim of this project was to take inspiration from trainers and reflect this through clothing. I created my own brand and image which is CORRERE, it means RUN in Italian. I have used an Italian name as the brands I have been inspired by, Stone Island and C.P. Company, originated in Italy. I studied the curved seams, raw edges, technical fabrics and the variety of colours that a trainer exhibits. This was in my attempt to capture the tough silhouette and design aspects a trainer holds. I have explored how I can create a more 3D and structured product in terms of pockets, lacing and adding various fabrics. This enabled texture to be designed into the garment itself.
