Puma and LCF at Carnaby

The above video is a concept animation of the latest fashion exhibition at LCF’s popup gallery on Broadwick Street.

Sportswear giant Puma has teamed up with BA (Hons) Fashion Design Technology: Womenswear design students, school children from local schools in Hackney and some of the UK’s biggest rising music stars, including Sway and Nate James, to swap ideas and collaborate on a range of t-shirt designs that will go on to be sold on ASOS.com. The exhibition will showcase winning designs and will celebrate the collaboration between the world of music and fashion.

Stay up to date with the full Carnaby schedule.

1st-year BA (Hons) Fashion Design Technology: Womenswear student Amber Bessey sent this shot from her latest project. 

These pieces are from my jean and jersey project. They were inspired by the complexity of music. The composition is overlooked, but if you study closely you can see depth within the whole. The bolero is made up of woven jersey strips. Very crafty!
