concept and Fabric and Colour board



More stand development

Here I knotted and draped wool onto the stand to create a really organic silhouette I really like the effortless weight it portrays.

Stand work

 I decided to do some work on the stand using knit and weaving techniques and came up with these details using plastic tubing as the base of which the wool wraps around. I love the way it can be manipulated into different forms. I would like to develop this further so that it has a bias fluid garment wrapped within the tubes.


Fabric manipulation techniques

I have been having an experimental day using mesh, wool and lots of leather to create interesting fabrications that reflect my concept.I really like this rag rugging technique as it resembles a fur - like textile. The finish result is really effective and has a lot of movement.
With this one I slashed some leather and created depth by weaving through some jersey fabric.
In the flesh this basket weave fabrication looks really powerful and intricate.
