Bye Bye Baby Spring 18’
This collection is an exploration of fabric manipulation using yarn.
Ideation/Planning
Style Inspiration: Molly Goddard
Molly Goddard played a significant role in the ideation phase of this collection. The way she takes the glamour out of her feminine silhouettes is inspiring.
Gathering, Pleating and Finger Weaving

Fabric Manipulation
For this collection I wanted to do what I love which is manipulating fabric into what works for me. My mind works in pieces so when presented with an assignment my instinct is to create something from scratch that I can manipulate to fit the design in my head. Using yarn is a must in my design process. Every design involves yarn in some way whether it is for texture, strength, an added visual element or to gather.
Brief: Tulle with kale green yarn laterally woven through it.
Brief: Organza and blood orange yarn pleated detailing along the skirt and torso.
Fabric: Tulle, Organza
Each look has its own color
Brief: Oversized design with gathering along perimeters
Brief: 3 piece set. Imagery on top and skirt with a transparent overlay.
