MA Fashion Footwear
Woven high heels, a gaze at traditions to resignify the ritual and beauty of craftsmanship.
Craftsmanship embodies the hand and mind of the people who create it. It is a testimony to the beauty and inheritance of the traditions, being one of the duties that still remain with its distinguishing trait of being passed down through familial generations.
Nowadays, the caliber of quality and details in traditional handcrafting is rarely seen. Within industrialization and mass production, craftsmanship has been less appreciated and its quality and details have deteriorated. This approach rejects the uniformity and repetitivness of mass production, where the imperfection of the craft process is usually thought of as a failure.
Accordingly, weaving is the main theme of this collection, where craftsmanship has been rethought. Creating a contemporary image that invites us to visit the past in order to glimpse the future has been achieved by modernizing traditional techniques and accessing the latest technologies.
The design process started by developing experimental pieces, conniving traditional footwear, weaved patterns and 3d printing.
The aesthetic enhances the weightlessness of female body, creating the illusion of hanging from a net, tying the feet down and bearing the netting into a three dimensionality. It pursues long and thin shapes while the bodyâs expression plays to be restricted, appearing fragile and instable from a podium that empowers it.
Since the costs are extremely high, the collection could not be completely made. I have decided to conclude my masterâs project with a digital representation and keep working on them as a personal process with the collaboration of Eichenberger.

MA Digital Fashion
Kelly Gilbert presents her first full collection from her London College of Fashion MA. With print as a starting point, this AW collection takes inspiration from the geometry of sound combining the aesthetics of clarity and clashes of error. Geometry is one of the oldest mathematical sciences, it touches every aspect of how we interact with the world, how we measure, organize and make sense of what is around us. Sound qualities such as waves, rhythm, repetition and sound diagrams are organized with clarity, error and interference send these geometries into chaos; noise, glitch, displaced moiré patterns are all combined as well as shapes found in sound equipment.â
The silhouette takes on a minimalist perspective, allowing bold and sophisticated prints to sing atop a strong and simple canvas. A nod to the 1970s recognizes the growing importance of nostalgia, authenticity and the real. Draped moiré jackets, cozy digitally knitted sweaters and body-con zipped dresses contrast with mesh fabrics, crisp tailored shirts, skirts and trousers. The mix and matched approach to the separates gives a utilitarian foundation in contrast to the collections geometric and kinetic moiré patterns.
British born and based Kelly Gilbert graduated from Winchester School of art in 2003 in BA Textile Design. She has since lived and worked in New York designing printed fashion accessories for Anne-Klein, Lulu Guinness, Vera, American Airways, Cynthia Rowley to name a few as well as USA department stores including Macys and Bloomingdales. Her experience in textiles and print has lead to freelancing with London agents creating print collections for commercial applications and trend roles for WGSN. Kelly has gone on to graduate from London College of Fashion in 2012 in MA Digital fashion applying her design aesthetic to printed fabrics for fashion.

There is a fresh interpretation in Ancient Egyptian Culture in Kay Kwokâs menswear collection--fake eternity.
with the inspiration of Ancient Egyptian Religious and Cosmology-the mysterious story behind Sphinx, the relation between the process of mummy erosion and the system of Ancient Egyptianâs constellation like Ancient culture of Solar,Lunar & Stellar story. the Designer has combined the ideas to create prints by playing shades, light and flame aiming to pushing digital printing into a new area with the twist of classic menswear tailoring.⨠Printed Neoprene fabric is widely used on the collection because of its fleshy hand-feel.â¨â¨
with the uniqueness and freshness of his menswear , the collection was nominated for the Collection of The Year Award 2012.

MA Fashion Artefact
Annelie Gross
D E F E C T S
The Master Collection 'DEFECTS' has a very strong personal approach: Growing up in a family of orthopedic technicians and prostheses constructors, I was raised in a spirit to assist human bodies, that were not blessed by nature with a perfectly functioning body.
This background left an essential impact on me and fostered my knowledge and interest in unusual (body) shapes, special materials and in my method of operation.
At the age of 6 I started to do gymnastics. Gymnastics is said to be a rough sports, hard to your bones and joints. In contradiction to an orthopedics attitude towards health, I became a competing gymnast. From a quite early stage in my life I started training my body and by doing this specific sports also bringing it into uncomfortable positions.
Whereas the unnatural, but required poses in gymnastics and dance appear attractive, the unnatural positions of a body caused by illness or deformity carry a feeling of uncomfort.
This intersection between a rather sensual movement and something so similar, that gives you the very opposite feeling, made me choose the body positions, that my artefacts are created around.
They are mix between elegance and outlandishness.
For my MA project, I created a collection of 8 Artefacts, which still have an orthopedic background, but they explore further freedoms beyond the piecesâ functionality. The Artefacts distort and restrict the body and by that cause the very opposite of what is meant to be healthy. A phenomena, which is often seen in fashion.
Within this project, I challenged the current ideas of orthotics and fashion and I want the betrayer to see beyond the unpleasant.
