FINAL MAJOR PROJECT

As you all know I'm in my final year at uni, which means one thing ......Ive finally got free rein to make what ever I want!!!!

Ive been gagging to do a sportswear inspired collection and finally I get my wish.

The search for quality sportswear fabrics wasn't a easy one, but managed to get my hands on some amazing perforated airtech fabrics in grey and red.


Ive layered this up over a high quality scuba fabric and I'm totally in love with the results!!

Although working with a stretch fabric that's also perforated hasn't been a easy task ..... I think ive pulled it off (Just hahaha).

Take a look at the first of four outfits as part of my collection and feel free to let me know what you think.



Thanks 
Jo

WHEN YOU FINALLY MEET YOUR HERO ...  WORK EXPERENCE AT ADIDAS HEAD OFFICE Well after about 3 year of pestering I was finally given the go ahead for some work experience at the Adidas head office. Upon arrival I was given a multitude of forms to sign........one being a confidentiality agreement (very MI5). I was told that this was due to the fact I would be working with the spring/summer 2018 collections!!!!! EEK how exciting.  Unfortunately this also meant that I wasn't allowed to take any photos apart from in the communal areas.
