SOME OF MY WORK





The more I search for job and contemplate my future(!), finding it impossible to put my finger on exactly what it is I want to do, the more I realise how good I had it during my final year of uni. To recap my final project, I worked in a team of three to produce the final Fashion Marketing and Communication degree show. This incorporated elements of absolutely everything; ideas and research, organisation and budgeting, designing and creating, implementing and project-managing.

Essentially we were working for a client (the uni), were given a sum of money (£15,000) and told 'this is what we want out of the event, now off you do and create something for us'. So we did (to celebrated success may I add...!) Now THAT is how I would like to earn a living, never two days the same, working with a whole range of media and dealing with lots of different people on a daily basis.

Here is some pages from The Big Book, a 128 page promotional magazine I created that was available at the show itself and taken to represent Nottingham Trent at Graduate Fashion Week.

Ahhhh the memories....

NOUGHTIES ETIQUETTE LESSON 1

DESIGN YER OWN UNDERGROUD

Now wouldn't that save us all a lot of time?

THE BELATED BORROWER


Read about this remarkable little project in the Metro the other day. The snippet film documents the trials and tribulations of a 9mm girl named Dot and was shot (fairly unbelievably) using a Nokia N8, with its 12 megapixel camera. Technology today ay?...

WAH WEE WOW






Check out these badass creations from Wah Nails! That's some serious hand candy right there.

CLAW BLIMEY!




I'm in love with the work of jewellery designer Dominic Jones, particularly these impeccably sculpted and beautifully dangerous rings. These are from his very first collection last year: if this is his debut work I can't wait to see what he dreams up in the future. At £455 for my fave (the double claw rose-gold one at the top) it may be some time before I can sport such a delicious specimen...

RARE PRINTS:




Love the Rare Prints collection from Ray Ban for this summer: a creative take on the original Wayfarer. If I wasn't so prone to losing/breaking my possesions I'D nab myself a pair of the flowery badboys.
