X-ray accessories

Part of my 3rd year collection project, was to incorporate an accessory component.

Maintaining my focus on the internal structures of the human body, I was inspired by the textures derived through Xray imaging.

I found the Xray of the human skull to be most intriguing, capturing various patterns and layers of bone.

Here is a record of images that inspired my work, followed by my final pieces. Those who were at the Collective Threads Fashion Show would have noticed these pieces on the runway.

Images from the Imaging Atlas of Human Anatomy.

I created this stencil by scanning a tucked chiffon that had been stitched at various positions.

Easton Pearson summer work experience

It's been confirmed! I will be doing work experience with Brisbane's Easton Pearson. I am so excited I can barely focus on Internally Bound 2010.

I will be working in production: steaming garments, garment check, unpacking and delivering garments, general quality check of garments, hand sewing etc.

It seems that Easton Pearson have taken on a tribal influence in their 2010 Cruise Collection. With bright and bold textile work, along side intricate Jewellery and defined garment structure, Easton Pearson has created a striking statement about their aesthetic.

Internally Bound

Internally Bound 2010

The Human body is often seen as a protective capsule, however, what we forget is the regenerative source of the human tissue is inevitably an uncontrollable element. I aim to address the restriction and suffocation of the human body by the creation of my Internally Bound collection, with reference to anatomical illustrations of the human body within structure and combining pieces that can be layered and revealed. The garments are constructed with a mix between chiffon, satin and jersey referencing the contrasting and yet vital relationship between the skeletal structure and muscle. Enhancing the structure, I have utilised smocking, tucking and binding to evoke a dissective depth and texture to my garments. The representation of the human body is dismembered and sutured in Internally Bound, to reveal the oppressive side of the human form.

Here are some illustration work done as an extension of Internally Bound.

Most of my illustration work are highly influenced by Jowy Maasdaame and H.R Giger.

Here are my final illustrations:
