on coming designs

These are few on coming designs for my new menswear collection

T-shrit design

E4 Skins - Promo ads

Love these promo advertisements for the forth series of E4's skins.

 I am interested in is the photography element of the characters fused with these sketchy, pictorial images in the background that create a sci-fi, delusional world.

This ad is centred around architecture and the city combined with block acid bright colour give it a creative identity

I like the geometric shape used in this ad and again used together with the photography element

 The colour tones grabbed my attention in this advertisement, the pastel palette used gives it a different edge  to the other ads

Current project - Sketchbook pages

These sketchbook designs are aimed towards my casual menswear collection.

out and about

Whilst I've been out and about lately, local architecture has become my focal point of inspiration. I am inspired by the perspective and angle in all these photos and the structure, form and shape of each building give an extra element.

 Building in construction

Angular buildings 

Interesting geometric wall

Traffic light

Different perspective 

Arial view of a rustic cylinder

Street Style

Style on the streets - Bold acid bights and a fusion of native prints

Vintage rugged mix

Modern twist on a classic preppy look

Vintage jacquard knit fused with a acid- bright palette

classic vintage knit in sombre tones

Scarve designs

These scarve designs follow the theme of faux real, I have explored dimension and geometric shape to create what i call evolving worlds, taking inspiration from natural and structural forms which are depicted in a abstract style.

I have a strong interest in shape and fusing it together with hand drawn imagery is were i find the balance. Colour is the key component as it draws together the overall feel of the theme, monochrome injected with pastel blues, turquoise, purples and navies. 

Although the final collection is aimed towards a male audience, I feel they appeal to both genders.

PSYCHEDELIC CITY/ colour palette: duck egg blue, grey tones, crimson 

SPUTNIK/ colour palette: monochrome, muted mint green, combination of orange tones, combination of blue tones

OVERLOADED/ colour palette: sky blue, grey tones, blue tones

COLLISION/ colour palette: dusky plum 

LIVING ON THE EDGE/ colour palette: duck egg blue, grey tones, midnight blue

 

Holly Fulton

Holly Fulton a graduate of Edinburgh College of Art and The Royal College of Art, launched her own collection in A/W 2009. The combination of hand drawn, graphically styled prints layered with super bold embellishment create a really strong signature look. These are often layered up with super scale accessories to create a look that is dazzling.
Holly Fulton is inspired by the Art Deco architecture of New York. Simple sharp silhouettes create the perfect canvas for deeply detailed, architecturally inspired pattern and embellishment.
This quote from Fulton’s website sums her look up perfectly: “My current signature style contains lots of geometric pattern lavished onto simply cut garments; big, luxurious, simple shapes with bold jewellery; bejewelled crystallised dresses and an eclectic mix of modern materials with a high end finish.”

Autumn/ Winter 2011

Spring/ Summer 2011

Although this is womens fashion I love the bold, graphic style and find her work inspirational.

on the street

Print and graphics in fashion are HUGE! Anything goes. Each photograph below bring an element im interested in using throughout my designs.

Gruesome and gory illustrative style

Type on tees - Hand-created creepy typefaces

Hypercolour tripped-out tees - Photo manipulation

rban nomad fuses hippy with an edgy streetwear look. It has a well-travelled feel with tribal prints and supernatural references found in accessories and symbols.
