Celestial Change
When imagining the future, I envision an eco-friendly and sustainable one. This collection uses biodegradable plastic that proposes to replace existing fashion fabrics and textile embellishments to normalise and encourage the use of alternative and unconventional materials. Taking visual inspiration from the 1960s fashion era including shift dresses, bows, lava lamps and Pierre Cardin, ‘Celestial Change’ sets out to create a youthful and fun collection that would offer a modern interpretation of the past. Keeping the historical structure, column shape and simple silhouette the same but enhancing its aesthetics and movement through a change in materials, making for a contemporary solution to an ever-growing problem.
