It's been an ongoing joke between the fashion/textile department that after working 24/7 on one project, you end up kind of becoming it.
In my case it is definitely true. Of course you design in a way that caters to your personal taste, but as you spend every second absorbed in your work it's really easy to begin seeing it everywhere and generally begin merging into your studio...
So many times my friends have drawn attention to the fact I usually dress like my work, so much so that during my second year my tutor actually attempted to throw me into my sketchbook shouting "YOU ARE YOUR PROJECT! YOU ARE THE PERFECT REPRESENTATION OF YOUR BRAAAANNDDD!"
The other day me and my housemate Amy were working in the studio (and by working I actually mean taking photos of our double chins), when we both noticed we were once again dressed like our work, so of course we had to document it..
Awkward...
How does she manage to look cute?
As you can see my (quite boring) sized 18 powder blue knitted jumper and leggings ensemble merges pretty well with my studio full of squares, lasercutting and random translucent things, whilst Amy is looking all pretty baby pink jumper and printed skirt surrounded by her delicate insects and soft knits...
For now..
