Childsplay

For my final project, the Interdisciplinary module, I have chosen to centre my concept around childrens toys and stories, concentrating on building toys and shapes. 
Children are introduced to lego, building blocks and construction at a very young age, and such toys are mainly for very young infants. Jean Charles de Castelbajac  has created a collection inspired by Lego. I loved Lego as a child and was always thrilled by what I could create.

I have done various samples using Lego and building blocks.

3rd Year Design Assistant


As part of the PPD1 module, we have become design assistants to a third year BA Fashion student for 3 weeks. 
This is an outfit from Grace Street's menswear collection modelled by Ross Spedding.
The photoshoot was similar to the pace and atmosphere found in the fashion industry and I found this experience rewarding and educational. I can see myself organising and managing similar events in the future.
