Curatorial Statement: The exhibition is a window into the differing methods and approaches with which, the students across the three years engage. Fabric manipulations, construction and form are explored as a means to deepen discovery and analysis of the body's physical and stylistic expression. These materialized thoughts in process respond and react to gender, identity, sexuality, sustainability and culture.
Each space displays a different aspect or approach to the multilayered development, ranging from paper and cardboard prototypes to muslins and process books. Fabric manipulations inform structure and completed configurations of dress are presented in 'The Shop.' This representation of a store is set up as a more polished arrangement and addresses how fashion is portrayed through a more commercial lens. A question can therefore be asked, is it the level of craftsmanship and skill that influences desirability and worth or the portrayal itself
