Featured Work: Basics Fashion Design 02
I am very pleased to announce the arrival of a new book by Jenny Udale, Basics Fashion Design: Textiles and Fashion. It features images from my Islands Above project.
Islands Above
This is an unique technique I have developed using discharge and devore on long pile velvet.
Mr Elephant Fatbear: Textile Teddy
Mr Elephant was created from screen-printed cotton shirting. He will
soon be available in a collection of colours to take home and keep.
Check Flowers
Screen-printed heavy silk dress. By building up layers in print in contrasting colours, the fabric gives the impression of a check weave.
Printed Check
Another example of using layering of print to give a weave effect.
Fabric Sketches
To explore different textile techniques and combinations, I have produced a collection of 'Fabric Sketches' on a variety of different fabrics.
Floral Quilting
Screen-printed floral design with contrasting quilting.
Collection Lookbook
This collection was a collaboration with Womenswear Designer, Ewa Dauter. The textiles were developed alongside the garment creation to ensure a symbiotic relationship between print and garment. The entire collection is inspired by desert sandstorms and nomadic lifestyles with an urban twist. The collection was shown on the catwalk at Graduate Fashion Week 2006.
Japanese Telephones
Discharge print in various strengths on silk. The image comes from telephones I found in the Fish Market in Tokyo.
Japanese Cranes
Imagery inspired by chains of paper cranes in Hiroshoma.
Little Monsters
For little ones.
