EVEolution is a collection that is a reflection on my personal journey growing up with dyslexia. This disability isn't visible to most, but is impairing to those who struggle with it. I illustrated this through the knit and laser cut name pattern I created with the E’s facing each other, just how I wrote my name in pre-school. My clothes capture this by incorporating an unexpected use of color (blue, yellow, brown), texture (sequins, fur) and transparency (chiffon) in contrast with traditional silhouettes (wool/ knit). This collections’s individual pieces can be styled into multiple looks. The designs are very layered and mixed up representing my interpretation of mixing up words. It conveys the harmony of flirtation, wit and confidence, life requires to overcome obstacles and remain open to adventure.
About this Work:
For my thesis: I started by machine knitting my own jacquard knit EVE Pattern, making my own punch card for the pattern, used a cricket to test my EVE laser file, laser cut the pattern, used a range of scaling, edge laced leather bag, swatched the embroidered quote for the back of my coat and embroidered it on the final.
