Last Project of the Year

Our fourth and final project has just started! I have chosen to focus on digital print for women's fashion. I found inspiration from one of WGSN's macro trends, New Digital Aesthetics. I have chosen to focus on this trend which includes digital blurs and glitches but also incorporating florals. I am going to produce a number of digitally printed fashion panels with a little bit of screen print (if i have time!)

Here are a few images of my inspiration. All image sources can be found via my Pinterest.

Sretist

I came across this Australian label over at Daydream Lily and I just had to share it!

Srestist is an Australian fashion label by designer Pim Sukhahuta. The label is a collection with her sister the name Sretsis translates to sisters spelled backwards. They have some adorable pieces and are different to anything i've ever seen!

Here are some of my favourite pieces!

Swimwear

I know this post may be a bit early as we are still having dark mornings and bitter nights and even snow(?!) however what the hell!

I think I was born in the wrong continent because the one item of clothing I cannot get enough of is swimwear. I absoulety can't get enough of bikinis, I have enough to last me a life time but not enough holidays to wear them on! But still I find the urge to purchase another one here and there!

Don't get me wrong, I love H&M and I would say that Zara is probably my all time favourite brand however year after year I still find TOPSHOP having the best range of swimwear on the highstreet.

Here are my three favourites at the moment!
