CNTRL - LOOK 1 PATTERN CUTTING PROCESS
After widening the leg of the trouser I felt it made all the difference to the silhouette of the garment. It also made the garment more relevant to my original moulage experimentation, that this silhouette came from. The pocket change also made the look fit better with my concept as the point in the first place was to have pockets in less conventional places so the consumer is less tempted to use their devices when socialising with friends.

CNTRL - FINAL SHOOT
On 28th Feb 2020 Bar CNTRL will be holding CNTRL’s debut collection release at their brand launch event. We would appreciate any press to come down and document the event. The event will be held at Bar CNTRL, Grainger Street, Newcastle Upon-Tyne from 7.30pm. The collection is inspired by British anthology series Black Mirror, which has caught the attention of the writers and producers. Charlie Brooker and Annabelle Jones (creators of Black Mirror) will be attending the event to give us the insight into the writing and production of the Black Mirror series, followed by music from ‘Bad Chapel’ residents and the collection release. CNTRL wants to support the community which is why we have got local business Chuchos on board to be serving food at the event. Chuchos is an authentic Mexican eatery that due to their success has just opened their second restaurant. CNTRL is a fashion brand that promotes face-to-face communication and knowing when to switch off from technology. Because of this we ask all journalists to respect this and switch back to using analogue cameras and a pen and paper where possible. We understand this will not be an option for everyone but kindly advise against excessive amounts technology at the event. If you require any more information do not hesitate to contact me at jess@cntrl.com
