A collective representation of me.

I'm somewhat neurotic, up and down and generally, at times, a bit all over the place. I have a creative mind. I'm shy but the most loud and confident at the same time. I'm not so much the conversationalist but I'll always give it a good go. I'm honest. I laugh, a lot. I express myself through fashion. I like it. I'm surrounded by the people I love, good British music, photography, art, and a number of mind provoking perspectives of the world. They seem to get it right a lot of the time. I'm often sarcastic. But I'm not arrogant. I'm currently reading The Complete Works of Oscar Wilde. Again. Because I'm intellectual and that. Some may beg to differ. My favourite book is about heroin addiction - Junk by Melvin Burgess, but that's probably because it considers anarchy in Bristol. I go through many different stages. Like everyone else. I have an addictive personality. The one thing that has always remained the same is my love for fashion.

Basically, I'm in Wonderland...

Menswear: Spring Summer 2011

That's right, I did menswear too. I didn't have to, I just really enjoy menswear. My favourite section to work whilst being employed at House of Fraser was mens formal. Yes, I did enjoy the Savile Row suits and measuring at the tender age of sixteen. Haaa.

Inspiration for Spring/Summer 2011 menswear direction comes from both historical and contemporary innovative analysis of key trends, as stated by WGSN – “ Connect the past, present and future, looking backwards, forwards and sideways to curate and record the life of a product, seamlessly blending captured memory connections with subtle technology.  Knits adopt a second life through reconstruction. Updated silhouettes and modern fabrications are scientifically aged to recreate a cherished aesthetic as unique as the wearer. Treatments and embellishments reflect personal timelines layered with narrated personal histories.”



“Details borrow subtle references from the past, with an added contemporary filter of advanced technology, resulting in a curious timelines hybrid.
Swathed volume
Pleated, plaited and caught-up volume lends a modern-historical touch.”
