DEFORMITO-MANIA
This is a F/W25 womenswear collection that explores 1890s aesthetics, abject and grotesque theory, and the application of my disabilities within creative pattern cutting and accessible garment manufacturing.
This collection aims to develop disability within fashion, from limited accessibility options into a pattern cutting process that innovates how contortion can become a key element of the designing process. My collection revels in ‘abnormal’ silhouettes and the visual flamboyance of the Fin de Siècle era, which is brought to life through exaggerated scale and the repurposing of antique textiles.
Plans after degree
My plans as a graduate from BA (Hons) Fashion is to continue pursuing in-house work during my upcoming year spent in London. Alongside this, I'll also be researching MA Fashion scholarships in preparations for the following year.
