Movement and comfort, are key to my collection. Hence, sportswear and street wear have always been my inspiration. The challenge born, to break the boundary between everyday street wear/sportswear, and elegant and glamorous femininity that are required in designing Womenswear, is what I hope to have achieved within my collection, though looking at Japanese traditional wear, Japanese wood print, and by using a new approach to sweatshirt. I have also been inspired by the subject of preconceptual fashion, which is, covering the body instead of exposing, and by hiding the body it becomes enhanced in a more effective way. Oversized and baggy may not make a woman look beautiful or attractive, yet I believe that by providing a space for someone that I design the clothes for, to move in the garments, and providing fabrics and silhouettes that move together with the body, giving her a presence and an attitude, she becomes undefeated and the most attractive woman. My passion to Fashion Design has grown over years, whilst experiencing and memorizing life at different time and place. Nano Aoshima Spring/Summer 2012 is a very personal collection, hence full of youth and it is what I feel right now at this moment. My ideas are never ending and I am convinced that this is the reason why I continued to enjoy designing so much. I wish to create something that has a character, and pieces of work that leave something in the corner of people's mind, to be remembered and recognized that it is my own work. My designs will keep changing as I grow up and enrich my experience, and I wish to keep expressing and communicating all of myself that is consumed into Fashion Design, in every opportunities that I meet in future.

I have been immersed in design and crafts since I was a little girl in Japan. From a young age, my mother taught me painting, sewing, embroidery and pottery. My grandmother ran a knitting school and my brother, Masahiro, is one of Japan's leading proponents of traditional Kimono (see www.awai.jp). I have lived, studied (BA Hons London College of Fashion) and worked in London for over ten years and currently work from my home studio in leafy Maida Vale. My work is very much inspired by my love of Englishness â the countryside, the seasons, tea and tradition. This is reflected in the new and vintage fabrics I use to create my bags. http://folksy.com/shops/MariReighCase http://mari-reigh.blogspot.co.uk/

Fashion Designer & Pattern Cutter (Womenswear) Impermanence: Death & Rebirth - Spr/Sum2011 Chic and effortlessly worn designs with a penchant for detailing and quality finishing, derive from a fascination with the concept of the understated elegance of Coco Chanel and the surrounding style of French New Wave Cinema actresses. This visual translates through its choice of classic lines and timeless silhouettes. With consideration made towards intelligent spending part of the collection expresses ways in which one garment can be worn in more than one way. These garments are investment pieces inspired by the 'Impermanent' cyclic nature of our existence and the world we live in, implying that what we believe to be never lasting does not necessarily equate to disposal, but rather towards the need for longevity through creative thinking and reinvention.

As an aspiring designer of menswear products, my approach has always necessarily shunned ornament and decoration in favor of simple shapes and basic forms allowing material to take center stage.

My 2012 FW COLLECTION COCEPT IS MONSTERS This project started travel from a film which is âWhere the wild things areâ. And this travel found new beautiful. This project explores that these new beautiful through the âMonstersâ. What we think about the monster? âMonstersâ is generally describes just fantasy in film and books. Moreover they considered that existence of weird and unnatural things. However they have history and emotions as well human being. In addition, they reflect our society. In other words, monsters are our alter ego. These monsters are actually weird in our society. However, I would say that, they are beautiful. TEXTILES WORKS IN THIS PROJECT The collection is Autumn/Winter 2012 and fabric consideration is very important to this project. Fabrics, like the preceding, describe contrast as well as colours palette. Main fabrics are nature feeling materials such as felt, wool, hair and cotton even bio-fibers. In contrast, point materials are unnatural fabrics. These point materials focus on sustainability using recycle materials which we once used and have since abandoned The combination of these nature winter fabrics and pointed recycle materials are trying making beautiful fabrics. They are mixed diverse methods such as knitting, felting, printing and embroidery. For example, plastic bag can be thread. If we cut it fine, and then stretching it, we can get fiber. After then, the fiber can be used knitting, crochet and embroidery. In addition, PET bottle can be changed to beads. If we chop PET bottle, we can get shine fine materials. And then makes hole we can using it fashion materials. Finally, this project can shows beautiful new fabrics when these kind of materials and nature fabrics knitting and hand embroidery together. Like this, most of my works have focused on sustainability. I'm really interested in that abandoned materials reborn as beautiful fashion materials. This makes unique and special quality and meaning of my garments. This is my works philosophy and differentiation.

www.lauraapsitlivens.co.uk As a hat designer I think is of the upmost importance that we do not see Couture Millinery disappear. It is important to me to use modern designs with old couture techniques, each piece being hand blocked and individually hand stitched and without the use of any machinery. Influenced by unusual uses of material and working through the concept of 'Skin' for my final collection produced for my degee, I wanted to combine everything I have learnt about leather with my millinery skills. I used raw inspiration from the human body and, using unconventional materials, I have created unusual and unique pieces. My objective was to design pieces which would also be seen as pieces of art. My pieces are always hand stiched, bespoke and of the highest quality; perfection is the only option. Materials used are unusual but aesthetically pleasing, making the mind question what it is looking at. In addition to completing my degree at the London College of Fashion I have attended specialist milinery courses to expand my knowledge of millinery and enhance my milinery skills. I have also been interning for Philip Treacy for the past two years, where I have gained invaluable experience and learnt all the Couture Techniques. I have made pieces for couture houses such as Valentino, Giorgio Armani and Alexander McQueen. I am currently working for my own company Laura Apsit Livens Limited, based in Chester in my own studio, I am often comuting to London, I have now produced 3 collections including SS13 - Bulls are colourblind - www.lauraapsitlivens.co.uk/bullsarecolourblind.html Currently is with PR agency POP PR - If you wish to contact for more details www.poppr.co.uk Contact: laura@lauraapsitlivens.co.uk

This collectionâs idea came from âAmelie from montmatreâ, a French movie, which is telling the story of a girl â Amelieâs Life. It was directed by director Jean - Pierre Jeunet on 1997. This movie is very fresh on its color and concept, also it is very subconscious and naïve. It is one of my favorite movies, because it created a warm and beautiful world. There is a scene in the film, which Amelie has found a little box in the bathroom. It is a small collection of a boy who used to live in her apartment. It reminds everyone back to their own childhood. For my own childhood, I used to collect small object together into box or bottles, even a small pin. Most of time, the purpose of people who collecting things is because they want to save or build something, it may be their emotions or memories of their life. The procedure of making cloth, is quite familiar with the way of collecing things. De signers adding different elements and details into their collecting to make the basic block has more variery and possibility. Both of them is putting things together to build something. This also inspired me to develop the concept as collecting memories. This collection is more about collecting and saving things or memories when we were in childrenâs time. It is more about being playful and naïve. Furthermore, this is the time for playing and insouciance and also this is the time we want to keep in our memories all the time. This collection is aims of sixteen-plus girl who has phsycalliy beeing a women, but mantal being whinsical and creative. It will rebuild this naïve atmosphere to those âwendy girlsâ and remind their memories of childhood in 2011 Autumn/Winter. It is trying to find a new balance point of cute and sexy, formal and informal, minimalist and infinity, feminine and feminist. Yi Tian Sun E-mail: y_sun1@hotmail.com Tell: +44 (0) 7515 440 164
