Autumn Winter 18
PRINT FOR THE SEASON WERE INSPIRED BY VINTAGE BORD GAMES AND CARD GAMES AFTER VISITING AN ANTIQUES SHOP AND SEEING A VINTAGE BACKGAMMONS BOARD
WITH REALLY INTERESTING PATTERNS AND DESIGN.
THE FINAL DESIGNS CHOSEN WAS THE HEARTS PRINT: STORY 1
WHICH WAS DIRECTLY INSPIRED BY THE HEARTS WITHIN A DECK OF CARDS- AFTER RESEARCH BEHIND HISTORIC HEART DESIGNS THROUGHOUT TIME.
THE CUT OUT FLORAL PRINT: STORY 2
THIS PRINT WAS INSPIRED BY THE IDEA OF MOVING ON BOARD GAMES INTO COMPUTERIZED AGE AND HOW OLD COMPUTER GAMES ARE PIXELATED SO MUCH THE ORIGINAL DESIGN IS HARDLY RECOGNIZABLE. I WANTED TO DO THIS TECHNIQUE WITH A FLORAL TO CREATE A CONTRAST BETWEEN SOMETHING GIRLY AND SOMETHING TECHY.
THE FLOWERS WERE CREATED USING CUT AND STICK ON PAPER TO GET THE SHARP UN-BALANCED LOOK OF EACH FLOWER.
THE FLORAL PRINT INCLUDES THE SIGNATURE NUMBERS INCLUDED IN MANY CBN PRINTS.
AW18
A COLLECTION INSPIRED BY 1970'S COOL WITH HUES OF RUST AND NAVYS GROUNDING THE PALETTE. A TRIP TO COPENHAGEN INSPIRED THE SCANDI SIMPLICITY WITHIN THE SHAPES CREATING A RANGE OF SOPHISTICATED WOMENSWEAR THAT HAS FEMININITY AND CONTRASTS OF BOXIER MASCULINE SHAPES. EACH PIECE HAS EXTRA DETAILS TO KEEP IT IN LINE WITH THE TED BAKER AND CBN BRAND DNA.
