Insanely beautiful shooting of the beloved Sylvester Mako for Krikor Jabotian. Lorna Foran - Revived renaissance perfection. Rinse your eyes after the Balenciaga show. It's not relevant at all, but it's such an eternal beauty.

Finders/Seekers: Navigating a troubling employment landscape
Welcome to my first post of 2024 where I discuss the state of the job market and my experiences in it.
It usually takes me a while to come up with what to write or post on the blog. Most times, it takes weeks between uploads and sometimes, what ends up getting posted is so short, it qualifies more as a passage in a children’s book than a bog-standard blog post. Writing is a strenous and taxing job. The fact that I have managed to keep the blog going since my second year in the university and well…

To looking back and looking ahead
To whatever readers I have left, welcome back. If you are new here, welcome. My own inability to keep to any kind of posting schedule has meant that at some point after June/July, uploads reverted to the usual misfortune of just not happening.
Anyway, I can’t keep apologizing for my habits. By now, if you have taken the time to look through the blog, you can tell what my patterns are or predict…

A postgraduate diary: The league of extraordinary problem solvers
In the almost 9 months of my programme, I have come to realise that I am in the business of problem solvers.
Allow me to explain.
One of my intentions with undertaking a masters in fashion was to improve my pattern cutting/drafting skills, particularly in the area of developing complex designs using dart manipulations.
I did not go into this a novice at manipulating patterns. I actually…

Fashion and research theory: Findings and conclusions
Hi there. This is the final entry to the fashion and research theory post series and I’m glad you’ve stuck around to see how my work is going. These posts were the result of codifying my work; giving me a sort of measuring stick for my progress. Today is about what I have found so far and my closing thoughts. It does not mean that I won’t keep talking about my MA project. It just marks the end of…

Fashion and research theory: The Methods to the Madness
Hello and welcome back to this post series looking into my research, methods and findings.

As it charts my postgraduate journey, I hope it gives you a little more insight into my work and the direction its going.
The methods I am using are—based on my evaluations…

Fashion and research theory: An exercise in methodology
The process of carrying out research in fashion practice is an activity which a designer might limit to compilation of imagery and toile development. Oftentimes, a designer might assume what they are doing is not necessarily research but a part of their design development which they cannot do without. The activities they might engage in from analysing images to market surveys can all be…
