Pockets of Nature
Autumn/ winter 2012 collection, showcasing the
contrast between nature and the city of wellington, an idea following on from
my previous summer collection.
This
collection has a strong focus on contrasting textures and shapes throughout the
eight outfit collection. Combining patterns from nature and the city with
strong lines and a combination of flowing and structured fabrics. All fabrics
used are made from natural fibres, which fits into the idea of ‘pockets of
nature’. Colours have been derived from the shades of autumn and the buildings
in the city. Garments can all be combined together to create variety with in
the collection, layering together leggings, dresses and cropped jackets with luscious
chunky woollen scarves.
In
designing this collection I have kept a strong focus on the trends of the
season. Ensuring this collection would capture the interests of my peers, my
target market of 20-30 year old women. I believe this collection has been
successful in portraying my concept of combining the city and nature in a
contrasting and trend focused approach.
