A Selection of Details from My Graduate Portfolio - Created to Display My Year Process As an ‘Exhibition’ AMELIA WANG a selection of details from my graduate portfolio - created to display my year process as an ‘exhibition’ instagram: @ameliawang.design email: [email protected] AMELIA WANG exhibition, curation, display. I hope for my graduate collection to be viewed as an exhibition. It is a halt in time, to capture and re-tell memories that are held within clothing. I have specifically placed focus on personal family stories since the Chinese Cultural Revolution (1966-1976). The collection objectifies and presents the experiences of three generations within my family: from my Popo (paternal Chinese grandmother) to my Baba (father), and also me. I have designed garments which cross classical fashion boundaries, steering from what usual connotations of ‘fashion’ are, and instead functioning across both commercial and non-commercial contexts. The collection should be appreciated as a build-up of memories and experiences coming together with the present in both wearable and scultpural ways; to be appreciated whether it is on a living and moving body or not.

Rather than designing in full looks, I have experimented with designing in single garments, drawing on tracing paper and manually layering and piecing the single designs together. Working in this way allowed for varied compositions, and meant that I could play around with layering different pieces together in numerous ways. This method also resonates with how I personally dress and style myself, making the designing process more personal to me. Rather than thinking about my personal dress sense as ‘looks’, I prefer to jigsaw my clothes together in a different way to how I wore it previously. I want to encourage individuals to pick and select garments to style in a personal way.

In order to address my collection’s life after construction, I have considered the impact of transporting it to another space through creating a online exhibition platform: linking a digital space to my process portfolio will carry the relevance of documentation and human interaction with my collection relevant in future years to come. The popularity and dominance of QR codes being used in daily life is ever-increasing, particularly in China, whereby almost anything can be controlled with a mobile phone. Linking elements of my collection process to a wider digital space through just the scan of a code would be a way for the viewer to have a personal connection with my exhibition. These codes could be situated at the bottom of portfolio pages and next to images or text. Individuals could then be taken through am intensified journey of more in-depth and detailed explanations, whilst being able to manoeuvre the digital space in any location or time. As a result of the Coronavirus pandemic, our degree catwalk show was cancelled. Creating a QR code that could take viewers into a VR space would be fascinating. It would provide an opportunity for my garments to be seen on a body in motion. Perhaps there could even be a way for the garments to be placed onto photographs or videos of these individuals, so that a personal connection can be built to juxtapose such a socially fragmented time.

  • 2019 Proceedings Las Vegas, Nevada
    Las Vegas, Nevada 201 9 Proceedings Art is the Flower, Life is the Green Leaf Erin French, Iowa State University, USA Keywords: Quilt, art, Mackintosh, Scotland Contextual Review and Concept Submission context. Charles Rennie Mackintosh (1868-1928) was a Scottish architect, interior designer, and artist who designed the Glasgow School of Art (GSA) building (Macaulay, 2010). The GSA as an institution of higher education and as a building made a major contribution to a unique visual movement known as the Glasgow Style, which was characterized by forms found in nature such as roses, seeds, and leaves as well as by its emphasis on linearity through vertical lines, elongated forms, and repeated squares (Euler, 2008; Wood, 2004). Nearly a century after Mackintosh’s death, his design, buildings, and artwork continue to inspire fashion designers, fabric designers, and fiber artists. Within the past 10 years, collections by Giorgio Armani, Christopher Kane, and Issey Miyake have featured garments influenced by Mackintosh and the Glasgow Style (Blank, 2010; Blank, 2015; Mower, 2018). Campbell (2008) created a kimono from digitally printed fabric that was inspired by Mackintosh’s fabric designs and the GSA building. In terms of fiber arts, Wood (2004) demonstrated how the major motifs of Mackintosh’s work could serve as inspiration for embroidery designs. I studied, lived, and worked in the Glasgow area for five years and was granted library privileges at the GSA as I studied for my master’s degree. These experiences led me to form an intellectual and emotional bond with the GSA building that moving back to the United States did not break.

Textile design is a creative field that fulfills a variety of purposes in our lives such as our clothing, carpets, drapes, towels, and historically wall coverings. The creations of patterned textiles are not only important for their use, but also for the role they play in the fashion industry. Textile designers have the ability to inspire collections, trends, and styles. The textile industry, while being a creative art form, is a very business savvy industry. Textile designers marry a creative vision of what a finished textile will look like with a deep understanding of the technical aspects of production and the properties of fibre, yarn, and dyes.

Prior to WW2 the operation of the tugs and barges was transferred to Thomas Claydon (Paddington) and soon after the war it ceased altogether as dumping in landfill was no longer acceptable in the area. With the nationalisation of the waterways in 1948, the fleet were transferred to the new British Waterways Board and all the craft were repainted in BWB colours. The White Heather was retained by British Waterways until the 1970s when she was laid up at Bulls Bridge and sold into private ownership.

  • Austerity Fashion 1945-1951 Bethan Bide .Compressed
    Austerity Fashion 1945-1951 rebuilding fashion cultures in post-war London Bethan Bide Royal Holloway, University of London Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Figure 1: Second-hand shoes for sale at a market in the East End, by Bob Collins, 1948. Museum of London, IN37802. 2 Declaration of authorship I Bethan Bide hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Bethan Bide 8 September 2017 3 Abstract This thesis considers the relationship between fashion, austerity and London in the years 1945 to 1951—categorised by popular history as a period of austerity in Britain. London in the late 1940s is commonly remembered as a drab city in a state of disrepair, leading fashion historians to look instead to Paris and New York for signs of post-war energy and change. Yet, looking closer at the business of making and selling fashion in London, it becomes clear that, behind the shortages, rubble and government regulation, something was stirring. The main empirical section of the thesis is divided into four chapters that explore different facets of London’s fashionable networks. These consider how looking closely at the writing, making, selling and watching of austerity fashion can help us build a better understanding of London fashion in the late 1940s. Together, these chapters reveal that austerity was a driving force for dynamic processes of change— particularly in relation to how women’s ready-to-wear fashions were made and sold in the city—and that a variety of social, economic and political conditions in post- war Britain changed the way manufacturers, retailers and consumers understood the symbolic capital of London fashion.
