FLUIDITY WOMENSWEAR SPRING/ SUMMER 2015
Fluidity was a project in where I wanted to show the contrast in who I am as a person and who I am as a designer as the two are very different. Who I am as a designer is shown through my love of colour and a bold print. Who I am as a person is shown through my use of fabric and how it has influenced my lightweight designs. Here is my moodboard that inspired my prints. I looked at artists Alberto Seveso and Michael Chase.

Design Identity Design Identity was an exploration of who I am as a designer. It was influenced about female sexuality and how they are stereotypically portrayed because they are ‘emotional’. I decided to take these ‘weaknesses’ and turn them into strength, such as the print that is inspired by women’s tears and the colour red which conotes lust as women can be seen as objects.
