Degree show visit, 1/3 Students work from degree show

When visiting the Manchester School of Art Degree show, I found it really interesting to see everyone's work, as during term time I never had to time or opportunity to see anything of the third years progress. I thought that the level of the third years work was good and the variety was great, there where no two things alike.

Above is a collection on the work that I really found inspiring, the detailed embroidery was lovely, So intricate and well done, with a very professional look, Also was the fashion students work. The fashion students display was really amazing, the room was very high fashion, what I loved most about the fashion students work, was the combination of fabrics, the cross over of knit against other textures like velvet for example looked beautiful. I feel that it made the knit stand out so much more. This is something I have tried I the past but really want to push it forward, not limiting myself to just knit, but bringing other qualities.

On my visit I particularly like Hannah Durmans work for the variety of techniques and processes used. I find the bright bold colours beautiful and very complimentary. what I find that is parallel to what I want to achieve next year is this mix of techniques, to really show what skills I have on the knitting machines (both domestic and dubied) Also this striking and eye catching colour pallet. I believe that the colour pallet within work is what really makes the garment/ Accessory/ object really stand out.
