Footprint awards...

Posted by Zoe Fletcher on Tuesday, March 15, 2011
So project number 1. is well underway, with a great productive day of research and planning for an exciting debut of beautiful designs linked to the lifecycle stages of food packaging for their annual awards ceremony! I am working with Julia on a set of 5 designs that show the different stages from raw material, and food miles travelled, to consumer awareness and waste disposal - they are still in the early stages of production...but i'm excited at how they are going to turn out! Keep you posted...

p.s. heres a quick picture of my knitting at the Masters Exhibition, at Victoria House Basement, Bloomsbury Square...

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.
