The Fun Way of Social Distancing

This collection promotes a fun way of social distancing via the medium of contemporary fashion. I have personally found the year of Covid, 2020 challenging. As a fashion designer my intention was to contribute and design fun garments that promote social distancing. Working in a quiet space during lock-down periods I was able to reflect on my design practice and focus on the practical elements of making. From this reflection my practice became much more technically focused.

Thanks so much AUT Fashion Design.

The Fun Way of Social Distancing

This final collection promotes the development of the fun way of social distancing garments developing, and reflective abilities through the design process and technical driven, it is very practical for me so as written material  relevant to the discipline within fashion industry.

It is really challenge for me as the year 2020 is still under COVID-19 pandemic, as a fashion designer I really intend to contribute my part to the world, and design some social distancing elements to warn people in the fun way that we are still under self-control stage. During lock-down  period, I have to buy a sewing machine for myself and develop my work at home, which also allow me to sit down quietly and start think about my entire design process.

In this final collection I have gained more experience and understanding of fashion design knowledge through garment construction and the directions from my knowledgeable tutor.

Thanks so much AUT Fashion Design.
