Bespoke Fashion Textiles

Layering, structure and shells are my main inspiration for this project. The aim for this project was to produce a range of new innovative luxury fashion fabrics for occasional wear. These fabrics are also aimed to give confidence whoever wears them while feeling comfortable. To promote equality in fashion, these fashion fabrics are available for everyone. Combining embroidery and knit techniques were the main process used for my final outcomes.
