Responsive Bodies and Colour Transformation
• graduate collection centred on inflatable garments
engineered with thermochromic panels
• colour transformation activated through inflation, using the cold
temperature of oxygen canisters to trigger pigment shift
• explored the body as a reactive site, where form and
surface shifted in real time
Subverting Gender through Uniform
• combined military codes with traditionally feminine
silhouettes on a masculine form
• cropped military jacket styled with pleated longline skirt
layered over wide leg pant
• reworked the waffle thermal into a subversive staple
with integrated balaclava
Rework, Lifecycle and Digital Presentation
• Developed garments through reconstruction and
recontextualisation as part of a lifecycle study
• Examined longevity, transformation and adaptive
reuse within fashion systems
• Explored material experimentation and unconventional
construction methods to extend garment lifecycle
