Education

Master of Arts Contemporary Fashion Design at IFA Paris
September 4, 2017 - January 25, 2019
Capstone project: Ugli Beauti Playing with the rules of what we consider ‘beautiful’ and 'ugly’; a juxtaposition of form, texture, sexuality and disfigurement. My concept has evolved from the body conscious society in which we are living in; a terrifying fascination with taboos, decay and immortality centered around social media, this 'kardashianised’ trash-reality we all consume on a daily basis. The power of life and death synthesised into a 2d pixelated pill. Modules: Research & Creative Thinking, Contemporary Creativity Analysis, Trends & Future, Fashion Ethnography, Consumer Behaviour, Creative Process Workshop, Fashion Cross Culture, Fashion Photography History & Analysis, Sourcing & Supply Chain, Branding, Pattern & Draping Development, Innovative Textile Workshop, Digital Design Workshop, Art & Image Creative Foundations, Semiology, Maille, Press, Distribution, Entrepreneurship & Finance, Intellectual Property, Styling, Visual Merchandising.
