Projects
  • CRYBABY  FASHION FILM - TOUGH
    CRYBABY FASHION FILM - TOUGHA fashion film exploring the effects of deindustrialisation upon masculine identities in the north-east of England, as well as homophobic legislation in the 1980s on queer people within the working class. This is my final film for the first season of my brand, promoting the collection and communicating the concept behind the project. Filmed during COVID-19 lockdown, creating something so personal with my younger brother was an amazing experience.
  • FINAL MAJOR PROJECT - TOUGH
    FINAL MAJOR PROJECT - TOUGHThis is my final major project, where I explore working-class masculinity and homophobic legislation in the UK. Using personal experiences of growing up in a post-industrial area and attending catholic school, this project aims to tear down the barriers of gender and give non-conforming people a place to be free.
  • FINAL MAJOR PROJECT - FOLLOW ON COLLECTION
    FINAL MAJOR PROJECT - FOLLOW ON COLLECTIONTaking inspiration from the Trawlermen in Hull during the 1950s, this collection explores the effects of masculinity on working-class identities.
