Pollenology

Pollenology; a collection encouraging the hybridisation of traditional craft and new technology. Inspired by pollen, bulbs and flora demonstrated in the bulbous silhouette, folds of fabric and seam detail.

The collection explores the idea of design and emotion through the garments giving a protective encasing to the body which is reflected in the protection of traditional crafts. Three dimensional fabric florals accompany a digital print crafted by using photographs of the fabric florals gives an illusion of dimensions and aesthetically enhances the garments with bursts of texture alongside print. The collection is made of natural fabrics such as wool and leather sourced to offer a high end collection for spring summer 2016.

Opaque spherical bags compliment the collections silhouette and mirror the illusion of dimensions once filled with live flowers. The collections colour pallet inspired by heritage withering buildings offers a sophisticated yet feminine tone as well as reflecting masculine details such as leather jet pockets, silk pocket linings and bound seams. Enhanced by the use of print linings and bindings the collection demonstrates detail on the inside as well as the outside which was inspired by the visual impact encased inside a flower bud. The collection aims to enhance the appreciation of traditional craft and revive threatened techniques and trades by collaborating these skills with new technology.
