Enchanted Forest

  • Jessica Thomas

For my Enchanted Forest fashion collection, I took inspiration from UK wildlife. My project explores a natural narrative, with the aim to celebrate the escapism and importance of the natural world through my selection of materials, patterns, and colours. It showcases my values as a designer through the project’s extensive research and sampling of techniques used in materiality. Highlighting the importance of these values through a growing confidence, to aid limit industry waste and for the customer to get the most use from the product as possible. This is exercised through pattern cutting, embroidery, screen printing and digital print to express my ability to the audience. This fashion collection consists of six interchangeable garments for the market using print and stitch accompanied with corresponding accessories, including a reversible and detachable collar and cuffs set.
