Cathy Yuen
Using laser cut (new technology) to push the boundaries of clothing design.
Cathy's work is inspired by Architecture. The 3D forms and cut outs remind me of Federation Square but also the cut outs remind me of stained glass windows in a church.
Cathy was working on a new toile when I visited which you can see has the same curved shape as the front piece.
Finished pieces from Cathy's graduate collection - they quality of the finish of her work is amazing.
Dara Ing
Dara's graduate collection is LED powered menswear using reflective materials.
Dara collaborated with RMIT Industrial Design student Dan Vaugh to create his LED menswear skirt.
Jack Leeson
Jack's collection uses lustrous blues inspired by the ocean.
When I stopped by he was cutting out new pattern pieces. He said this was 'boring cutting' and apparently for fashion design students there is also interesting cutting - you learn something new every day.
Using felting, ironing on to seams to blend fabric together, Jack has been able to create this beautiful texture.
Molly Younger
This piece in Molly's graduate collection was made using a mould of a body and then latex and pain is applied to give it form and texture.
Other pieces in her collection are screen printed.
Screen print of the mould.
The latex and pain create interesting texture.
Raw unfinished edges add to the texture.
