Siki Im AW 2011

I've known about this label for ages but I've only just remembered how amazing his/there looks are. It's like familiar styles and pieces taken further away from the norm.

Digital Technology - Final Project

My final project for my first/only year at Ravensbourne was much more productive that I might have imagined. Put simply, the project was to encourage us to explore new ways of presenting our work 'digitally' and take a closer look at branding, competitors etc. Here's some of what i came up with:

Some quick prints using layers and staggering

I named my imaginary brand after Leonard EULER who was a pioneering Swiss mathematician and physician seeing as my project was based around  geometry, physics and the such.

Models taken from RAD Hourani's work

We were told to make a final line-up of 10 pieces which obviously isn't much for a 8 week project but all on illustrator was a joke, Upon 100 design rough in the sketchbook.

I listed my competitors as Wooyoungmi, 
Rad by Rad Hourani, Songzio, Balenciaga 2008 Fall/Winter &
Aitor Throup

You can see it's been rushed a bit because not everything is in proportion etc. but you get the gist

P.S As promised here is my feedback at a C+/B- Grade

'Good verbal breakdown with supporting digital visuals. Strong competitor breakdown. Shockingly bad fabric board. The photoshop documents need to be saved as jpegs for presentation purposes. It is not acceptable for work to be presented as individual files. Digital work must be presented as a finished presentation in appropriate software. Work on this over the summer. Well the very positive thing to note here is that your work has improved dramatically. The standard of your digital work is impressive with very distinctive and original ideas that reflect cutting edge menswear aesthetic. However, time management and organisation/preparation remains an issue for you. The sketchbook is thin in content with no colour exploration. Work hard on addressing the remaining issues over the summer to put yourself at the top of your peer group for your level 2 experience. More content and organisation and consistency of quality!'

The White Show That Never Was

So, I was meant to be at the Central Saint Martins White show but unfortunately there was a conflict between  the designer and handing in dates

Front

Right

Rick Owens top/Draped Scarf

                                                                                                                        

The + side of this situation was that I was fortunate enough to sit in on the first year Menswear critique and take pictures. so here they are.

How long must that arm have taken?

CSM Toilets

                                                                                                                                         

My favourite Look

So well made

Ginger hair + Freckles <3 - Nice work also?

Model-Andrew Thomas
Off to catholic boys School?

The tutors requested he unbutton a few buttons to reveal his chest. Ya know add some sex appeal. I dunno

Interesting effect on the jacket. Commercial...yes

Unfinished- Detailing on the bodice must have taken it's toll

Close-up

Favourite Blazer/Jacket. How much in black?

Designer + Model

Nice shoes. The  two front panels can flip to the back and meet together with a zip
to reveal a simpler design

See whatta Mean?

Close-Up

Best Concept- Three Stages of the After life represented through layers 

Heaven, Hell & Purgatory

Maison Martin Margiela Jumper WTF? Cash to Splash

Explain

Cute Design but the models got a more bad boy look?

Having a moment

Boredom= life of a model?

So, yeah this is first year work. I'm nowhere near this standard at all ,so yeah. Let's get back to work

I've recently seen a designers work coming across all these websites and blogs I've been on. Not sure whether it a new or established label but there menswear is really innovative and it just goes to show that you can still push the boundaries in a field as confined as menswear.
