Travel Size
My grad show collection titled “Travel Size”, is inspired by the idea of panic packing, travel lifestyle and air company branding. The story of my muse within this project is that she is late for her flight and is trying to stuff her carryon suitcase with everything she needs but has no more room so anything she can’t fit in her suitcase she has to wear.
Knit and vinyl have played key parts to the development of this project, and by mixing these skills with my concept and aesthetic, it has allowed me to create interesting and colourful samples and experimentation that have led my design work to what I feel is a unique exploration of my concept. For vinyl and knit design inspiration I looked into key elements within travel, like for example luggage accessories/travel patches and key logos within airports.
