I was on the direction team for our second year fashion show 'Curiously Curious'. My role was creative direction and set design. Loosely based on the Mad Hatter's tea party in Alice in Wonderland, this show was an exhibition of the second year Fashion Design students garments at Manchester School of Art.

A project exploring British youth culture, taking photographs with pinhole camera's that I hand made from items I found on nights out in Manchester. I thought it would be a nice idea to create new memories with old memories. I spent a lot of time in the darkroom for this project, making different lenses for my pinhole camera from a variety of objects and testing for hours. The results were mostly obsqure, perfectly embodying the alcahol induced haze these objects were abandoned in. The styling was inspired by interesting charaters I saw around Manchester, created with mundane objects. The final images are displayed next to the object they were shot with. Directed, styled & shot by me.

ABOUT
This editorial is based on lucid dreaming, which is when you can control your dreams. Amongst my participants that experience this dream state, they could generally alter characters and change the direction of the dream but not the ending, like in video games, how you can select your player and control their actions, but ca not change their fate. 40% of my experiment participants dreamt about being inside video games, and I realised this would be the perfect way to visualise lucid dreaming. People are probably dreaming about video games due to our lives completely moving online since lockdown began. In an ode to the future facing magazine Sofa, my editorial will be imagining our near future world after COVID-19. Sofa magazine is steeped in Japanese references which have clearly informed it’s retro-futuristic clashing visuals, and so i have investigated into the techno-futurism of 1980s Japanese cyber-punk cinema and Japanese anime to inform the aesthetic of the editorial. I will be collaborating with modelling agencies ‘Menace’ and ‘Milk’, who have agreed to provide me with a cast of androgenous, diverse models, and a designer who i feel embodies my personal vision of the future of fashion.
