DISGUISED BURTALISM

  • Amelia  Boyes
Disguised Brutalism is revolved around the perceptions of the 1960's architectural movement that can now be perceived as 'ugly'. This project focuses on abstracting fundamental shapes and linear qualities, to create new motifs, which have disguised this movement into a luxury Autumn/Winter womenswear collection. 'Geometric', 'repetition' and 'texture' are three key words which are portrayed within Amelia's primary imagery and her final samples show this in response to her initial imagery and drawings. Although her motifs show repetition, Amelia's work method is influenced by innovative surface qualities, therefore she experiments with scale, colour proportions, negative/positive spacing and different compositions. Throughout this project Amelia shows a great aspect of experimentation and exploration and this shows that she is not afraid to try new techniques or combine processes together. Overall, this project shows attention to detail in a collection of precise luxury fashion fabrics.
