I want my collection to evoke a youthful, comfortable and positive aesthetic and emotion. To also be accessible to the young women as well as having the use of some bold colours to give it an essence of spirit and courage. I designed my collection with the high street shopper in mind, so it’s quite simple but has playfulness to the clothes with this folding over concept. Within the collection there are many separates so it can be mixed and matched with each other depending on the wearer’s taste.

The concept of my collection focuses on the simple use of folding over technique to create interesting but minimal shapes. The concept and design came from toiling the basic shape of the Chinese robe and then developed my designs further from the jacket. Then I gradually began to build my collection with the concept of this folding over idea and to make my collection fresh l with the use of bold colours and stripes but also interesting yet simple with clean lines and A-line silhouettes. To also allow my collection to be relatable to the high street shopper and keeping it youthful with the use of denim.
Seeing it's my last post of the year I decided to post my personal manifesto for my collection and what I hope to do after I graduate, which is hopefully to work at a great high street company in the design department and hopefully in the near future be able to see some of my ideas made and just simply seeing someone wearing my design on the street, would make me happy! So I really hope that 2011 will be a better and bigger year for me and everyone! Happy New Year to all!!! :)
