ALCHEMY

Clara - Iman (Modelling the garments) - Rosie

My friend Clara had invited me along to her fashion show with her fellow students at Chelsea College of Arts. The BA Textile Design students had a project which involved putting on a fashion showcase. It was called 'ALCHEMY',  featuring a range of textile fabrics across all types of specialisms of textiles like print / weave and knit. Clara had created the upper garment and had partnered up with classmate and friend (on the right) Rosie who designed the bottom half

I decided to ask them to tell me about their thoughts of the project and  how they went about it. Check it out here :

I really did enjoy the show, the only part I was upset about was the bad choice of lighting, so I unfortunately can not show still shots of the look right now or even the other looks from the class ! But I will be visiting them soon ... so do keep an eye of this post which I will soon update again

Something new ....

Hey Guys, I hope all is well with everyone ! I've now gone back to university as of today; I can't believe that I'm in the third term of my first year, time has truly gone too fast !

Anyway, back to the post. For some time now, I had an idea about incorporating some sort of video diary about what I get up to on my journey, including interviews with designers (like when I ask them about their collection / catch up what's new etc) . I created a keek that will (hopefully) have mini  interviews of a range of stuff like designers after their shows, industrial people and maybe some ootds , and trying out with my camera to do conversations with designers featuring a little more about their concepts. I haven't got all my equipment yet ... by by God's grace ... I'll have some sufficient stuff by the end of summer.

So, yesterday I met up with designer, Jhaniel Smith from House of Oshae, a print-based fashion designer from East London who recently launched her brand at Caribbean Fashion Week not too long ago . I met up with her team and Aisha from eat.pray.blog to find about their plans for a lookbook (which I'll be able to show you very soon) .

Here is the link to the keek interviews

Here's my first interview from the YouTube page

Hope you liked it, would love any feedback ^_^
