Pure admiration






I discovered Aitor throup about 2 years ago, i am in awe of him, everything he has done i wish i had thought of. I want to be him.
this is a post of love.

FLANIMALS.

i love ricky, and animals.
Flanimals, brilliant.

I want to make flanimal outfits.





Flanimals

Fun flanimal rain macs...







i think i want to have a go at kiddies wear...





the more i think about it the more i want to...
i have always liked doing menswear because i like the more practical approach, multi functional, appealing to male geekier side, and above all comfortable, practical, technical, fabric-allly interesting clothing.
Womenswear has never appealed to me, boring, all aesthetic, women will wear anything even if it hurts, pinches etc to do so. for example high heels, the entire concept/practicality baffles me.

id never thought of it until sue pointed it out in a crit but kidswear is practical, it has to be clever, interactive, highly practical ie mess, technical fabrics for sensitive skin/stains/breathable, but above all it has this fun sort of exciting aesthetic element with bright colour and patterns, open to collabortative projects with my graphics friends for fun logo's full of colour and interest...

im intrigued!

Third year Begins.

Fist week or so back, its all a bit scary, everything is going so fast its a bit daunting.
Already ive forgotten how to pattern cut and im trying to remember before tuesday! Im excited to get on with my project, i love my research and i think my concept is strong. After Sues much needed feedback on tuesday, which was all what we needed, a good kick up the arse, i realise my presentation and professionalism on this course needs a massive re think and transforming...this is what i need to work on.
i think i need to re focus everything and what i want to do and just get on with it...
i am continuing with my anatomy/global warming/menswear/camping/techno fabric/sportswear themes...just trying to combine them all into one exciting idea...

watch this space...
