ABOUT
The project ‘A Nostalgic Future’ has largely been inspired by a recent trip to Tokyo. The project features my own primary photographs alongside other influential sources such as vintage lingerie and nightwear, Japanese pop culture including ‘90s street wear and anime, as well as themes addressing the innocence of childhood clashed with the brutal reality of adulthood for women.
I often start my design process by styling garments either on the stand or on the body to create interesting layers and silhouettes. As well as influencing my initial design process, this also allows me to create an image of what my muse would look and behave like with each look intended for a specific character. This process allows me to translate something 3D into a flat design by using various techniques including collages and sketching allowing me to quickly build up a range of design ideas.
