BA (Hons) Fashion Design Technology: Womenswear

London based Fashion Designer and Illustrator WINTER DRESSES there is nothing more glamorous than wearing a dress in a snowy winters night. My very first vision and starting point of my final BA collection. This collection is a modern interpretation of imagery from pagan rituals still celebrated in villages in middle Europe and art and the occult. Referencing artist like Victor Hugo, Max Ernst as well as Paul Klee conjure up my fascination for occult and art. The mood of Fernand Khnopff painting gave me a platform for the aura I wished to create influenced with my personal aesthetics and design codes. Expressive oversized silhouettes, attention to finishing details and the use of crafts (knit) as well as the chosen materials and the sensitivity of colors are standards of my work. The ghostly silhouettes of my dresses as well as its transparent material are inspired by imagery from occult shapes and symbolism and costumes from pagan rituals. My collection is also featuring a few hand-knitted pieces with different size metal beads knitted into a silk- wool mix. These pieces go with chiffon dresses. All my colors are pale, transparent like a dreamy version of reality balanced with some dark nearly black tones.
