About

Enjoying artistic subjects from a young age, I am a creative and imaginative individual enjoying creativity outside of my fashion studies I recently completed in London. I have always been very ambitious where I work hard to produce unique and engaging outcomes whatever the creative task at hand. My bubbly and enthusiastic nature helps with new interactions and relationships where my flair is evident in how I present myself and communicate with others. A recently-graduated fashion design student hoping to one day share my interests in design with the wider world outside of my current smaller bubble, my biggest design passion lies with tailoring. I prefer to opt for creating silhouettes that will flatter the customer however they desire whether it is to be fitted and sleek or androgynous and make a bold statement.

For this mini project I completed over the summer of 2022 ahead of my second year of studying at the Fashion Retail Academy, I selected a book to read and create several physical sketchbook pages about. I selected A Streetcar Named Desire by Tennessee Williams which contains many themes to explore that gave me scope to physically illustrate the mood being communicated by Williams. I began with contextual research surrounding the author, societal context of the time period the play is set in, and broader themes. I then moved onto quotes in the play separated into different sections regarding settings, descriptions, conflict/tension, and sexuality. This built up my ideas as I progressed through my pages, which is clear in the storytelling of my work, with little to no extra notes added on. Towards the end, I began to consider some line up ideas for the themes and quotes in the play I had researched and presented in the sketchbook. I am very happy with my final line ups as they use mixed media methods and are relevant to the play and its context.
