The Start of the Colour Project

Sketchbook pages/design work from my current project, influenced my my trend forecast of science, cells and distortion. Curved, circular (cell-like) silhouette compliment the funnel shape around the hips, shoulders etc. Greyscale colour palette influenced from cell imagery using electron microscopes, with bursts of vibrant blues taken forward from the trend. Detailing will be subtle to coincide with heavy prints influenced by distorted cells. Gathering will create curves and volume, contrasting with structured skirts and tight trousers (?), emphasising the funnel shape...

The First Show

Our first year fashion show: The White Project

The White Project: Sheltered

My first project at Trent: The White Project. I based the whole thing around protection, shelter and restriction. My final garment was a really restricted cape, with a big thick padded and quilted hood to cover and protect the face. Shapes inspired by armour, restriction and 'what lies beneath'.
