Apparel Student Design Project 2021

By 12th January 2022 No Comments

Congratulations to Hannah Balshaw from Nottingham Trent University for creating the 2021 winning design which is included in our Spring / Summer 23 Apparel Collection. The brief was to create a classic Menswear design with an interesting twist using silk shades dyed in-house at the mill in Sudbury.

Hannah’s original design & visualisation – a classic spot. Hannah developed a variation on this classic by introducing patterns within pattern, enhancing the design and creating depth in colour. We found the tonal variation and detail particularly interesting – it translated beautifully into a jacquard design

DC1552 – the design transformed into woven fabric.
