Materialised from a body of research inspired by the notion of movement in its many interpretations and guises ‘MOVE’ explores my fascination of possibility encompassed by this verb and noun. Its transformative and illusionary nature is hinted at throughout the collection through powerful transformational garments and accessories. The entirety of the collection is crafted through the implementation and use of reclaimed bicycle inner tubes, an unavoidable waste product critical in the movement of people. In turn I have curated a novel sustainable fabric which has been rediscovered and repurposed into a new space and function. This is implemented within every look within the collection whereby facilitating movement in another form. My ambition for this collection is to highlight what can be achieved through the utilisation and implementation of waste material so as to push the boundaries of garment and material curation to attain a more sustainable circular future.
