KERRY O'BRINE FASHION - YEAR 2 FASHION PROJECTS

Tristan Webber

Tristan Webber is a well known fashion designer and guest lecturer at Ravensborne College of Fashion. He introduced year 2 fashion students to his personal approach to designing women's fashion.

He approachs his collections by taking a subject and using 3 categories to investigate and generate information and ideas as a starting point to his designs.

The categories are atmosphere, linear and 3D.

Kerry chose anatomy as her subject matter.

She went to an old operating theatre. She researched artists like Jenny Saville and Cindy Sherman who have interested her in the way they look at and depict the female form.

Left is an illustration of three of six designs for a collection inspired by anatomy and using Tristan Webber's technique for generating fashion designs.

Go to 2, atmosphere, linear and 3D to see boards displaying the other illustrations of this project and Kerry's investigations in these three areas of design.
