Choosers...

Posted by Zoe Fletcher on Wednesday, April 1, 2009
Today i've been thinking of ways to present my collection, using tags and labeling to display how my product is made, the fibres it is made from and options of how to wear it. I remembered back to when i was little and used to love making 'choosers' (like an origami thing where you pick a colour then a number then it says something underneath...??!!) and loved the idea of the wearer choosing how they wear it on a particular day. Here's a few pictures of my process... and also a bit of sample knitting i've been doing on the side...









ABOUT ME


Zoe Grace Fletcher Currently undertaking a PhD at Manchester Metropolitan University within the MIRIAD post-graduate department, I am beginning a practice based academic journey into British wool fibres and new technologies within knitwear design. Graduating with Distinction from a Masters in Fashion and the Environment at London College of Fashion, specialising in hand-knitting and the British Wool Industry, I have worked on a number of knitwear collections (personal and external companies), whilst freelancing and researching for a number of exciting projects. My work revolves around the idea of sustainable fashion from a knitted perspective and the different ways to achieve this incorporating the ideas of slow fashion into mainstream society. I love knitting. And wool. And double sided sticky tape.
