Designers that influence the designer

Astrid Andersen

 Sheer and layering

 Although this is menswear I can definitely see where Anna gets her inspiration from and the kind of work she is producing. I want to produce a brand for her which is going to stand out and I think with the work she kind of does this reflection will make her stand out.


Holly Fox Lee

 Lots of pannelling which Anna talked about

Holly’s graduate collection is inspired by the ‘krump’ dance craze, a movement she discovered whilst interning with Jeremy Scott in LA in 2007.  Films such as Blade Runner and Escape from LA further influence the collection with Holly translating the sci-fi futurism into modern fabrics.  PVC is manipulated using foam tubing whilst trousers and shorts keep their exaggerated silhouette with the use of a tailored, hardwearing canvas.
The unique aesthetic is facilitated using numerous design techniques from flocking, screen-printing with digital pigment, digital printing, devore and tie dying.
