JAMAICAN ME CRAZY'Don't want Jackie, Give dem Paul instead, Dem don't want di sweetness between di leg..' Banton, B . (1992) Boom Bye Bye. Jamacia: Shang Muzick Brogan Toyn’s S/S 2013  graduate collection, ‘Jamaican me Crazy’  contends against frequent homophobic dancehall lyrics, by creating ‘expressive’ street wear for the modern man.  Through the amalgamation of research, aggressive 90’s hip hop trends are combined with the promiscuousness of Jamaica’s dancehall Queens, consequently redefining common contemporary constructions of the male identity in contemporary fashion. Collaborating with textile designer Zoe Sterling, ‘Jamaican Me Crazy’ ignores familiar connotations of masculinity in order to create an unconventional sportswear S/S13 Menswear collection. Juxtaposing common culture with subcultures, Brogan creates clothes for men willing to push image boundaries beyond the norm of the day, instead hyper exaggerating them. Representation of the black gay male in contemporary fashion is relatively absent as patriarchal values still influence the majority. Although, commonly it has been long thought that it is a homosexual customer that consumes outlandish modern menswear trends. Something which has been allegedly underground , emerging in the 80s and 90's and documented in films such as Livingstones 'Paris is burning' is now becoming a trend. Queens. Proportions within ‘Jamaican me Crazy’ remain unbalanced due to the amalgamation of inspirations. Influenced prominently by the provocative outfits of the Jamaican dancehall Queens, the collection rearranges masculine shapes in order to reverse gender restraints. Referencing dancehall contemporaries in hip hop,  Brogan adopts classic street style proportions to conflict with risque silhouettes, crop tops vs. basketball shorts. Focusing heavily on the context of colour within menswear and in order to balance an overtly sexualized concept, a juxtaposition of colour has been enforce. Enhanced pastels compliment the risqué silhouettes as they distract from erotic undertones and encourage the energy of the dancehall. Unconventionally luxurious, Brogan does not use classic performance fabrics. Instead, collaborating with textile designer Zoe Sterling, sequins adorn nearly every look and increase the collections flamboyance. Rainbow furs creep along the edges of garments while tight crotches are emphasized by printed, metallic lurex fabrics. As ‘Jamaican me Crazy’ adopts outlandish street style and contradicts obvious urban aesthetics, sequined crop tops only emphasize this further.

Metallic Gold Leather Knit Dress

BA (Hons) Fashion Design Technology: Surface Textiles

Experimental textile creative embracing new technologies and merging them with old crafts; I create pieces fusing knit, embroidery, laser cutting and textile manipulation and have a strong understanding of proportion and the body with the ability to engineer and construct embellishment to enhance design on the body. All pieces designed and constructed are inspired by architecture and structure in nature. Exoskeletons and skeletons in particular have constantly been a point of fascination and through layering, contrasting and distorting my inspirations I push the development further via context, use of materials and scale. The focus is always on the textile first, the final design being a result of the 3D textile experimentation process. The 3D textiles are also developed digitally layering with illustration creating another unique way of interpreting and merging developments.

Lookbook 'burn' harness bag

BA (Hons) Cordwainers Accessories: Product Design & Development

A curious and diligent designer who takes inspiration from many sources including life experiences, anatomy, the fantastical and the unknown. The aim of lindseytait design is to use fashion and its influence as a channel to raise awareness of social issues and to make a difference. The brand is dedicated to having a social responsibility as well as producing superior quality crafted pieces that are one of a kind and make a statement. Striving for perfection, attention to detail is key as well as finding new and exciting ways to create, while incorporating traditional artisan techniques to produce beautifully finished products. Looking to modern technology to influence design and to push the boundaries of ‘fashion’, lindseytait design hopes to bring accessory design to new levels of what can be achieved. The graduate collection ‘skin deep’ is influenced by the issue of self-harm: the stigma associated with it and the restriction of the body to prevent harming. It was key that the pieces should be beautiful as well as provocative in order to raise awareness, yet still be products that can be worn with attraction rather than the ‘ugliness’ of self-harm. Using an intricate cherry-blossom pattern laser etched into the lining (which sits close against the skin) is significant as the cherry-blossom flower represents feminine strength and sexuality. This soft and beautiful leather etched lining is juxtaposed against the strong VegTan exterior that provides a shield-like mould around various parts of the body. Each piece is fully functional, despite being conceptual rather than commercial. Born in a small town in Northern Ireland, Lindsey showed a strong passion for art and craft from a young age, which soon flourished into a love for fashion design. While completing her Foundation Diploma, Lindsey’s keen attention to detail and interest in accessories became apparent, leading to her relocation to London to attend London College of Fashion. Lindsey intends to remain in London to continue growing as a designer and to also expand her knowledge of fashion design and construction into apparel – although her main focus still remains on creating innovative and provocative fashion accessories.

BA (Hons) Cordwainers Footwear: Product Design & Development

SeungMi Kim BA(Hons) Cordwainers Footwear: Product Design & Development SeungMi Kim expects to become a creative and modern brand that will represent contemporary shoes. Mainly, it is inspired by a variety of art theories, issues or arts work that is reinterpreted in a modern way. The value of the brand will be enhanced through combing work with special skills and each design has a significant meaning. “Changes in form, illusion and technology” This main concept of the A/W 2013-14 is ‘Cubism’ which was inspired by cubism painting and sculpture. It is based on cubism theory; the main objective is to reproduce the surface through three-dimensional view and the basic perspective rule is abandoned and shows the same object in different sides. These were combined with my design, which resulted in a modern conceptual and fashionable shoe. I used 3D printing, which was hidden rather than showing on the outside to give change to the shape of the shoe. To create an optical illusion a point colour was used. On the whole, the collection shows dramatic elements of materials, colour and design. - Contact detail - sui.seungmikim@gmail.com 07738333109

JESSICA NG A/W 2013 So Wrong It’s Right. The A/W 2013 collection stems around the concept of twisted innocence and juxtaposes ideas of purity with the corrupted. It combines the familiarity of personal experiences with a touch of the forbidden that aims to evoke a mood of strange endearment. Many of the artists explored within the themes of this collection are individuals who had been previously condemned by society and even criminally prosecuted for their work because they violated the sacred ideology of childhood innocence. (e.g. Sally Mann, Irina Ionesco) However, we now live in a society that is more tolerant than it has ever been, in some respects, and is willing to entertain ideas of eroticism and childhood coexisting. At the very least, there is a curiosity to explore and investigate subjects within a new, modern context where one might reassess subject matter formerly regarded as offensive and find respect for each quality the image offers. Contrasting the serious subject matter of controversial photography with Jessica’s childhood memories of Garbage Pail Kids as well as saturated Egon Schiele paintings were integral in injecting fun and color to the collection. Vibrant colors and clashes of textures throughout were used to communicate a sense of unease, beauty and playfulness all at once. The primary fabric used in the collection is a syrupy sweet, pink Harris Tweed – ultra feminine with its color, but countered with oversized, masculine silhouettes and a rough, heavy texture. The weighty garments are combined with lighter pieces like sandwashed silk shirts and velvet embroidered leggings to contrast textures and add movement to the pieces. The exploration of draping and tailoring with unconventional finishes was also key in creating the collection. Many of the garments feature stitchless darts and disappearing details like pockets and collars using needlepunch techniques with inspiration taken from unfinished paintings where the lines of the body are finished by the eye rather than actual marks. // PRESS Highly Commended Finalist in i-D Magazine/All Walks Diversity Now Competition (Clothing Design Category) http://i-donline.com/2013/04/diversity-now-the-finalist-cut/ http://blogs.arts.ac.uk/fashion/2013/06/05/students-scoop-prizes-at-diversity-now-2013/ Pigeons and Peacocks Illustration Feature http://www.pigeonsandpeacocks.com/editorial/jessica-ng-fashion-illustration/ LCF BA 2013 ANNUAL SHOWCASE http://issuu.com/london_college_of_fashion/docs/sdt-annual-2013 ISKO x London College of Fashion http://blog.stylesight.com/denim/isko-x-london-college-of-fashion // WORK EXPERIENCE Band of Outsiders Design Intern (January 2012 – March 2012) Preen by Thornton Bregazzi Production and Design Studio Assistant (November 2010 – April 2011) // CREDITS DESIGN DENIM supported by ISKO™ Photography: James Rees Creative Direction: Rob Phillips Beauty: Pace Chen Model: Harriet at Select (1 - 2) BRITISH FASHION COUNCIL SHOOT Photography: Justino Esteves Creative Direction: Rob Phillips Model: Rebeca Marcos @ Models 1 Beauty: Pace Chen Nail Art: Lauren Michelle Pires (3 - 16) JESSICA NG A/W 2013 Photography: Alexandra Leese Model: Charli Howard @ Union Beauty: Chloe Han (*) i-D Magazine/All Walks Diversity NOW!

B R A N D C O N C E P T Mobility, Style & Comfort is the heart of Holiday footwear. The brand's ultimate goal is to establish a reputation for the perfect city holiday shoes - hence the name Holiday - for the women who are creative, independent and well travelled. P R E S S "When I saw Hiroe Haruki wearing her own shoes at the exhibition, I immediately thought of the possibilities should her shoes be taken to production stages. She hasn't just come up with a collection but a brand concept as well to create the perfect city holiday shoes. Travellers and nomads inspired Haruki to create shoes that unify techniques from various cultures. They are shoes that are meant to be well-travelled and well-worn. Using wet-molding, her soles are designed for practicality and comfort and the neon cord detailing gives the shoes the design oomph they need. Here's hoping Haruki and her shoes for Holiday take off." - Style Bubble (http://www.stylebubble.co.uk/style_bubble/2012/07/shoes-n-things.html) A B O U T With a background in product design, Hiroe has keen eyes in details, finding significance in experimenting with materials and challenging conventional construction whilst considering practicality. Hiroe has gained invaluable work experience at Celine, Chau Har Lee and Roland Mouret. She is currently seeking employment in the footwear/fashion industry.

BA (Hons) Cordwainers Footwear: Product Design & Development

For our University final major project I created FR&&K. The brand supports freedom in all its aspects and to do so collaborate with well estabilished brands to reinforce their message in fashion. The first shocking collaboration is with Durex. Working for Adidas and Vivobarefoot has made me question and re-think the concept of footwear. Humans have evolved for hundreds of thousands of years without the need for footwear. Shoes originated to fulfil the need to protect feet from heat, cold and other hazardous conditions that could cause injury. My understanding of footwear has reinforced my belief that the foot should be afforded maximum protection possible without compromising the foot anatomy. Studies show that the foot benefits by having the least amount of material possible separating it from the ground, so that the body can pass as much information as possible to the brain. Vivobarefoot shoes mimic the natural way of walking and running, therefore, improving feeling, posture, circulation and balance. These principles inspired the realization of my final collection. The collaboration with Durex* condoms was an idea I came up with while working for Vivobarefoot, which I subsequently developed into a whole new brand concept. Barefoot shoes are all about promoting natural feeling, freedom and fun, thus the same can be said about Durex**. The feet and the genitals have among the highest concentration of nerve endings in the body, which are all interacting continuously with the brain. There are 7000 nerve endings in the feet alone and these receptors relay important information to the brain about the texture and temperature of the floor. The intention of this project is to generate a greater awareness of what natural walking and running could do to improve our lives. Seen from the outside the shoes look like trainers, but inside the inner construction embraces the foot in a seamless hug around the heel, while one of the thinnest outsoles in the market is hidden underneath. Contact +44 (0)78 26514906 adrianopiccinini@gmail.com *Durex is a trademark of Reckitt Benckiser.

MOD.#THREE complexion VERY LIGHT (VL)(DI)

MA Fashion Footwear

A VERY SPECIAL THANK YOU TO Juliane, L.A. Flaunting is yours! ABOUT The design approach developed for my body of work included two major questions; First if it was possible for me to make a contribution to the traditional canon of men’s shoe design. And secondly if my products are able to draw a new aesthetic code relevant for contemporary fashion. The collection works with and against the categorized elements of traditional shoe design, manipulating the generic expectations of its audience through subtile but decisive alterations. The L.A. theme and research as a thematic foundation underlines the collection and is meant to give cohesion on a narrative base, in which Los Angeles functions as a desirous destination not an actual place. The Collection won Dato Jimmy Choo Award 2012 ITS Accessory Collection of the Year 2013 VISUAL WORK IN COLLABORATION WITH Photos: Jeanne Büchi Styling: Samir Hecham SUPPORTING INSTITUTIONS Hessische Kulturstiftung / Fine Art Grant Programme / Grant Worshipful Company of Cordwainers / Scholarship Dato Jimmy Choo Award / Bursary SPONSORS Institute For Creative Leather Technologies, Chris Barnard and Rachel Garwood, Director ICLT The University of Northampton Colorfoil Hot foiling supply’s Formech International Limited I AM broke, open-minded, multidisciplinary, efficient, focused, intelligent and honest.

Exploration of new materials, in particular the use of PVC, has allowed for highly creative and innovative textile development through embroidery processes, that reflect on traditional craftsmanship, whilst evoking a clinical and medicinal aesthetic. Transforming materials is becoming an increasingly important aspect of Olivia’s work. This collection saw PVC hose pipes cut, dyed and stitched to become PVC beadwork. Combining this with satin stitch work and screen printed fabric, Olivia likes to work with both traditional aspects to textile design as well more unconventional material. Integral to Olivia’s practice is her illustration and drawing. Specializing in highly detailed hand rendered work, her illustration style is graphic, yet rich in textile inspired texture and detail. Olivia was selected as a finalist for the Nina de Yorke fashion illustration prize, and has also been shortlisted to compete to illustrate for the Maria Luisa website. Olivia was selected for the LCF Press Exhibition 2013 and exhibited a sculptural textile piece which demonstrated the concepts surrounding her Final Collection, as well as showcasing new textile development.
