For this task, the theme I chose was future living. Firstly visiting the Wellcome Collection, my starting point begins with cells which makes up all living things, this then made me explore into plants, animals and the human anatomy. I used both hand embroidery and machine work techniques which includes satin stitching, beaded fringes, couching etc. Christopher Kane and Stella McCartney both inspired me in different ways. Kane uses elements of the human body in his collections in interesting and different ways and McCartney is sustainable and recycles and upcycles the materials she uses in her designs. Sustainability is a big part of this project and so the materials used are things I found or were recycled that I could incorporate into sample making.
