According to the previous research and the two former projects, the design methodology of the collection is `using the linguistics knowledge and engineering method of Hans Bellmerâs graphic works to transform the female forms into high innovation collectionâ.
This project is an innovative program that bridges the gay between digital technology and design aesthetics. It almost includes all the contemporary technologies in the fashion industry such digital print, creative textile innovation, CAD pattern cutting, 3D technology. At the same, also includes the manual parts from traditional technology. The unique project is the combination of various technical measures.

The project I have been doing for over a year is mostly about combining porcelain and fashion together. I found some inner relationship between the broken shard and garment techniques, like patterns, finishings, etc.
By partially concealling the shard into fabric draping, the final looks show several interesting contrasts, which are:
- the hardness of ceramic and the tenderness of fabric
- the delicate of the draping and the roughness of the breaking edge
The whole collection starts from some research about posrmodernism, however ends up with a surreal look. Hope you will like it.

Bona Kim is a London based designer, who recently completed Master in Fashion Design and Technology, Womenswear at London College of Fashion 2013. "Go to the Fine Teatime"
For the teapot collection, strong accessories and metallic hand embroidery played a big role in aiding the concept and fulfilling the aesthetic of each garment in order to express the beauty of the decorative aspect of the teapot.
This project presents combinations of the complex elements that are gathered during the experimental design process; neutral colour such as creamy white has been chosen for the collection and been considered and focused for its mood of the concept and ability to communicate with the surface of garments, as they should be able to show more of the weight and texture of fabrics within an unified tone among complicated details.
The collection is aimed at high-end market. Extravagant hand-embroidery, three-dimensional pieces-look and three-dimensional patterns suit couture aesthetics. The main point is to show off her own aesthetic and designer identity, and each piece of garment can be commercially reinterpreted. She wanted to expose the commerciality and creativity of herself by providing more choice to make.

The main aim of this collection is to suggest how we can make more attractive sustainable shoes and how we can reduce the use of chemicals to a minimum in making shoes. My projectâs concept started from question that is âWhy Eco-friendly shoes are not beautifulâ. Eco-friendly shoes on the current market look too monotonous and unattractive. For these reasons eco-friendly shoes are not in the spotlight of consumers. Whereas shoe companies use a large dose of pollutants such as synthetic dyes and glue when they make shoes. In order to remedy this situation, I want to make new type of eco-friendly shoes by combining natural materials and new manufacturing in the shoes production methods.
The collection is to develop a new manufacturing method for sustainable shoes and apply unusual material in the outsole. It is also to introduce a way that each customer can easily customise their shoes with his or her preferences and tastes. The collection will focus on a structure of shoe outsole made of wood. It will introduce distinguished style from other eco friendly shoes. As this structure is being attempted for the first time, it will show from the developmental stage of sandal to normal shoe.

Made in Scotland
:a visual exploration through salvaged materials from a Scottish mill to inspire and inform others about heritage and sustainability.
We each use objects and practices of heritage to shape our ideas about who we are as individuals, communities and nations. Embedded within us is a unique story of where we have come from; a personal journey enriched by our own heritage, which reflects who we are today. No matter where you go in life, your heritage always remains the same.
âScotland is a nation that prides itself on its patriotism and independence; a country steeped with a rich fashion and textile influence, like no other. With a history of heritage fabrics, romantic definitions, indigenous skills and industrial declines, it is a key example of the necessity to appreciate the practices of where you are from while they still exist.
ââThe project explores the connections between heritage and sustainability through fashion to disseminate the importance of appreciating where you are from whilst utilising what you have.ââ The physical exploration uses salvaged 'waste' materials from a Scottish mill to create pieces, which will hopefully inspire and inform viewers. It is as equally important to look to the past to disseminate information regarding heritage, as it is to look to the future to communicate ideas concerning the environment.

The concept of this collection can be referred to the broad notion of postmodernism.
Since postmodernism is too broad as a concept, I have conducted the project with the emphasis on certain characteristics that are opposite to the general idea of formalism.
I am personally interested in designs that go beyond the existing framework and form. By challenging and modifying what is already formalized as a form or a set of rules, I have intended to try and develop a collection of new footwear designs that stretch the boundaries of visual, technical and functional forms.
To an extent to which the original wearable function of footwear is not undermined by the excess of design, I attempt to seek some new possibilities of footwear design and develop the idea consistently.
There are three important points .
The first is development of a component that enables changing heels.
The idea was inspired during the research on fixed gear cycle that can easily change the part of cycle and build up own cycle.
Appropriating this concept of customization in cycle components into footwear, I have identified the heel part, simple, functionally effective parts in footwear, as a potential place for a new customizable component to be installed.
The second is the leather layering technique on upper part. By multi layering of leather and modifying the thickness of leather shoes in that way, a new visual form can be discovered.
The last is the experiment of a new material for heel and colour.
The outcome of this collection is aimed to show a new form of footwear that is hard to be conceived in the industry. This is geared to illustrate some new possibilities and directions, at the same time, interact with the current trend without ruling out the functional aspect of footwear. In this I intend to build a collection of designs with realistic touch, which will feed new ideas into the industry and communicate with the customers through design. Moreover, living in the era of post-postmodernism with a number of much cherished and memorable designs, it is my personal aim to design one that will last through time with its beauty intact.

The aim of this project is to study how social and cultural everyday life issues can be translated within fashion context to present a fresh point of view, in this case by bringing new attention to tradition. The collection concept is current, personal and helps me evolve through an exploration of my cultural heritage.
This project is a way to show there is an opportunity in a crisis for improvement. It can be expressed using oneâs own cultural resources. It reflects confusion and disappointment among people especially in Greece and its youth. Youth needs to appreciate its cultural heritage and not to reject it by imitating foreign stereotypes. The economic crisis is a vital factor creating confusion but at the same time needing solutions. The new interpretations of Carnival values and symbolisms will be used as a medium to suggest solutions through the use of non conventional materials.
The collection shows the transformation of a modern citizen to a Carnival daemon through 8 stages. It will present the need of the modern man to escape and go back to his roots for solutions. There is an emphasis on the cow bells sound and the movement of people in disguises. The bells are a very important element since they are used to wake up the forces of nature and disperse the evil.
The accessories produced challenge and push the boundaries of fashion with the mixture of different materials and textures together. Hardware materials (brushes and pendant drill cups) are used outside their everyday life context creating decorative surfaces - optical illusions of constructed 3D textile using diverse objects. Softer materials contradict the roughness of the hardware textures creating a similar effect such as religious trimmings.

AW12/13 Collection: Simple Complexity Complex Simplicity
Arena is a London based creative pattern cutter/designer in womenswear.
Arena graduated with a 1st class (Hons) degree in Fashion Design from the University of Huddersfield. She went onto study an MA to develop her skills as a creative pattern cutter with focus on tailoring and experimental methods of cutting.
Arenaâs collection is inspired by the single sided surface (The Mobius Strip) through the study of Topology. Exploring the region between art and mathematics and finding beauty in geometry. She used computer technology for a new approach to design. Complex, minimal surfaces were generated using a 3D modelling computer program to which a âflatteningâ process was applied. The flat 2D patterns transferred to paper and fabric for further manipulation and experimentation in relation to the body. This design process changes the design methodology; going from 3D surface to 2D and then back to 3D.
This collection is a true celebration of creative pattern cutting and was produced solely by the designer, in its entirety, from start to finish.

This collection born out of English picturesque garden. I would say the garden compare anthology of art. In 18th century,Despite the British devotion to naturalism, features such as ruins and follies hybrid flowers became gradually more and more ornamental. The idea that the inclusion of artificial elements in fact contributes to the concept of a ânaturalistic gardenâ

Breaking pre-conceptions is a recurring theme in Joshâs work.
In the series âHappy Birthday, My Dearâ, he brings to discussion the notion that women are not allowed to age and are almost forced by the media and society to do everything possible to keep looking young.
With the use of very old fashion camera-less photography techniques, such as photograms, together with modern high tech gadgets like i-pads and digital cameras (âHappy Birthday, My Dearâ and âMutual Coreâ series), Josh stays true to his concepts and creates images that are products of the old and the new, always aiming to be innovative.

Stains&Scars
The collection started from a kind of feeling that âstainsâ can never be removed but stay as a part of you âthis included two aspects: Stains and scars - to be tangible scars they are bloodstains, bruises, burns and surgery scars and also memories as scars â pain coming from indelible memories and how these shape our experiences and contribute to who we are as individuals.
The project is focus on stains as a form of memories and personal identity to give stains meaningful metaphor and transferring them into illusions on garments. It also aimed to extend researches on various stains to find ugly beauty and using hand sculpture latex textiles to imitate scars.
The collection intended to be made of natural fabric with print and plain textile together, such as wool, cotton and silk. About 60 percents of garments in the collection were planed to be digital printed. These include stains and scars images in meaningful illusions. Except digital printing and laser cutting which had been used in previous designs, Meanwhile, one piece of leather jacket with engraved roses was also in the collection. And the final collection has another new textile to display scars, which is a kinds of latex sheet with roses embossments.
