Her individual style inspired an exploration deeper into the idea of personal identity and how clothes are used everyday to express feeling, personality and individuality. Particularly looking at this in terms of age and how age affects style and the ability to express oneself visually. This strong attraction to powerful individuality began an investigation into age and it's effect on style, identity and image. Looking closely at age gave a new insight into fashion and style and how this changes as we grow older, and the effect that society has on the ability to express identity through clothing the older we get. Researching into the effect that cheap mass production and fast fashion is having on our expression of individuality through clothing and the old idea of buying something to treasure instead of disposing of it when fashion moves on. This research unearthed some inspiring characters for whom despite their age everyday is an opportunity to play dress up. To be expressive visually and push boundaries that come with age and stereotype. To have the confidence and audacity to be completely themselves and only themselves, why be anything else? In particular 90 year old Ilona Royce Smithkin, who’s love and passion of expressing herself using colour inspired the idea of relishing colour and creating a powerfully colourful collection. A strong theme explored in this collection was the sense of idiosyncratic individuality, it was important to explore elements in a personal way and because of this the collection includes hand dyeing, with hand mixed dyes, hand spun wool and hand knitting, constantly referring back to an expression of individual style. The hand dyed and knitted garments are intergrated throughout the collection the soft, bubbly, fluffy uneven texture of the hand spun wool is juxtaposed with the slick shiny surface of metallic Lame`. Exploration of dyeing already coloured silk prints and creating these prints in new colourways creating a sense of personality.
