COLLECTION 02
1996
CONCEPT PROPOSALS
Fashion, in my perspective, represents life. Also, plays a role of connection with different eras. I was touched by the movie, Marie Antoinette. The colour, the scenes, the atmosphere, the costumes, the ruffles and the fabrics. Through this movie, I knew more about myself as well. With those so-called classis design, I want to connect them together and create a bridge of the era. And use my own way to convey they influence me. I was born in 1996, for me, my life, my knowledge, my aesthetics are all began from this year. This collection is present the stage of my self-reflection about my thinking way and my aesthetics in that moment. It is really personal, and that is the reason why I named this collection 1996.
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
1800s
In the beginning, I chose those five keywords for this collection. I want to design this collection with feminine and elegant feeling. Pearls and ruffles are the indispensable elements in this whole collection.
1960s
Pearls
Ruffles
Contemporary
In the first time of fabric research, I collected those fabrics that have soft and light feeling. Also have some feminine and conventional sense. Most of the fabrics’ colour I chose are beige and cream, because I want to make them as similar as the atmosphere that the past eras gave me.
These are the fabric experimentation,
This was the colour palette I decided, the inspiration came from one of the underground line I take when I go to school. I want to make this collection more personal, just as telling my story. The major colour I decided to use are the two on the left, and those other three colours are more like embellishment.
Rebuild
These are the further research I did, after searched those Cracked
Collapse
images, I change my collection’s keywords, rebuild, repair, clooapse and cracked. In my prespective, as similar as the human life, everything has their life circle.
Repair
I am interested those broken things, and want to apply these fragment detail into design.
The silhouette of the whole collection present the cylindric shape, I do not want to emphasise the waistline. My goal is to make the genderless silhouette with feminine detail in the whole collection. Every detail looks very little, but it is hard to be ignored.
The final colour palette I decided to use different kinds of blue. The reason I changed the colour palette is based on the public acceptance, practicality and wearability.
