London

I recently visited the Maison Martin Margiella collection at Somerset House. It celebratd 20 years of work from the company incorporating garments, films, photography and installtions. It was amazing to see so much influential work all together, pieces that have affected fashion so radically in such a short space of time. Many of the garments arnt very commercial but the pattern cutting is so intriguing, and the ideas behind the white washed things in the exhibition and the how the labels in the garments dont even have the designers name on them. It made me think that i should explore more creative techniques when it comes to pattern cutting and maybe try out more thought provoking concepts in my work maybe more couture pieces or less commercial design. Concentrate on shape making a try new things out. I generally dont like working in this manner but i can try it out and find away for it to influence my work and  way i feel compliments my practice.
