  • FINAL MAJOR PROJECT ' A WOMAN'S BODY THROUGH SURREALISM'
    FINAL MAJOR PROJECT ' A WOMAN'S BODY THROUGH SURREALISM'My Final Major Project, 'A women's body through surrealism' has been inspired by surealist artists research to influence the shapes and colourways throughout the collection. In todays generation, every woman has their own visons and beliefs of what the 'perfect' body looks like and in this project, I have focused on moving away from this by creating androgynous street-wear clothing where the wearer can not be identified as woman or man. The collection has been designed based around the drawings
  • GFF CHILDRENSWEAR AWARD
    GFF CHILDRENSWEAR AWARDMY GENDER - NEUTRAL CHILDRENSWEAR PROJECT HAS BEEN HIGHLY INSPIRED BY CLASSIC JERSEY STREET-WEAR WHICH IS TRENDING ON THE HIGH STREET. I HAVE ADDED AN ELEMENT OF OVERSIZING TO MY COLLECTION AS I BELIEVE THAT THE YOUTH OF TODAY ARE GROWING UP IN A SOCIETY WHERE THERE IS A VAST AMOUNT OF BODY SHAMING ON OTHERS WHICH IS CAUSED THROUGH SOCIAL MEDIA AND CELEBRITY INFLUENCERS. OVERSIZED CLOTHING IS RECENTLY A HUGE TREND AND I BELIEVE THAT IT CAN MAKE YOUNGER PEOPLE FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE AND COOL IN
