Final year being a student...

As I am on my final year in university, I have been busy and hectic for the past months. Starting my term with summer project and pre-collection research with has probably taken most of my time up until now. Also planning and writing a dissertation keeping me busy on top of the studio work I'm doing for the pre-collection. My pre-collection is due in next week so I have been busy sewing and toiling over the past month. It is base on Yakuza, the Japanese mafia.
I have also made a official page for my clothing brand ERINERI on Facebook and ordered my business cards. If you're inerested please visit the link to the page and like the page for more updates on my work. Until next time. Have an amazing Christmas and New Year!! ^_^

Glimpse of my work...

Portfolio work for my latest project in uni.

Fashion students' dilemma..

The last project of my second year in uni. It has been stressful and hectic yet enjoyable because of the people that I am surrounded with. I look forward in new challenge and meeting new amazing people along the way. 

Have an amazing summer everyone!!

Assistants on Photoshoots

Second year of being a fashion designer isn't as chilled out as it seem, (well as I thought maybe). With the 6 weeks internship at a fashion label, assistant at photoshoots and two projects after that, I was kept busy the whole time. 

Year start..

Busy with portfolio work and internship interviews for this years' term. Here are the photos I have chosen to show on my portfolio. Thank you to the people who helped me with the shoot.

Katie Eary

Katie Eary to me is like an alien name not knowing who she is however her design which is worn by these korean group called BTS and CL from 2ne1 made me look into her background and collection. Both groups suites the outfits really well as it adds hip hop and chic element to their style. It has a minimalistic colours and bold print which screams bold character and identity to its wearer. I personally like Katie's collection as it catches my taste not only in construction of the garments but also with the fabric selections. I think that the clothes are wearable out for casual or occasional events.

The collection is from her SS13 menswear and womenswear collection. You can also check out her online shop for the individual items or if you want to purchase/look at the clothes.

CL wore Katie Eary's Collection for her teaser photos and in her music video for her song Baddest Female. 

D.Y.L.M??...

It's been a while, this blog post is going to be about 2NE1's outfit from their first broadcast appearance for their song called Do You Love Me. 

Their outfits draw my attention as they rarely wear dresses (apart from Park Bom, pigtail hairdo) on their broadcast appearance. I like the way that the print adds twist of subtle feminine touch to the dress knowing that the prints are robot part/facial feature which are very masculine. 

The designer/brand of the dresses that they wore is none other than Ground Zero. Ground Zero brand is established by duo brothers Eri and Philip Chu in 2008. If you want to know more about them check out their website. 

The collection in which the dresses were from was inspired by surrounding robot. It brings balance of femininity in armoury, soft silhouette and the fabric selection. 

Here are the dresses which was Ground Zero's S/S13 collection She's Electric.

Falling in Love...

There has been a song that I'm obsessed with lately it's none other than 2NE1's Falling in Love. Not only that this song is catchy and addictive, the outfits that the girls wore in this video are interesting and trendy.

Some of the clothing that they wore in the music video are very well known designers as well as Balmain, Balenciaga, Peter Pilotto and Mary katrantzou. They rocked the bold prints and colours which flows well with the song concept. The whole concept of their song match well with their outfits throughout the music video.

American Apparel and Kesh Collaboration

For their first broadcast appearance with their single Falling in Love they wore Kesh's collaboration with american apparel. The bold block and monochrome print of their outfits adds a simple and very eye-catchy while they are performing. I was very curious on which designer/brand they were wearing this time and found out its a collaboration with Kesh who's London base artist, which also a good friend of them and american apparel. I want a couple of the kesh collection especially the leggings and the t-shirt that sandara is wearing. Their outfits can be found on the American Apparel online website if your interested to purchase a few of them.
