something old,something new

a little look at the past and a cheeky wink in the direction of the future; mood board and samples for some Frank Auerbach inspired knitwear, and one of my degree show pieces,

I'm getting interested in restriction in knit again.... perhaps it is an autumnal influence, people.the time has come to start wrapping our bodies up in texture and bulk, let us look to knitwear to guide us through these chilly times ahead.be bold and brave with those knits.....

Happy Birthday Bauhaus!

I had the lovely job of coordinating the Fashion presentation for the fabulous Cooperative designs this London Fashion Week, Next year is the Bauhaus' birthday, which inspired this season's knitwear collection.

here are a few shots of the Bauhaus Tea Party table i set up for the event, the chess piece cupcakes were made by the very talented lily vanilli the Spring Sumer 10 collection was shown on mannequins placed on a giant chessboard complete with giant bauhaus chess pieces, film and electronic german band! Quite the affair!
