Nathalie Fordeyn

These are a few examples from Nathalie Fordeyn's MA collection called 'A Drummer In A Tree' "I wanted this collection to be strange, both to me and to the audience" Nathalie Fordeyn. Using dramatic headpieces, chunky knits and sheer fabrics. Nathalie still feels she can push the boundaries further, I can't wait to see her future designs.

Tze Goh

Tze Goh's AW2011 collection is beautifully crafted from wool in a subtle pallet. It challenges traditional shape, creates a new aesthetic with beguiling simplicity and sculptural modernism. (Thanks)

Christien Meindertsma II

Christien Meindertsma explores the life of products and raw materials, Christien explores issues of consumerism and the lost connection between primary producers, farmers and consumers.

Through projects such as the one sheep project, and using the product of one animal, for example a fleece to create one product. There is an integral history of the garment and a connection with the animal, it's farmer, the manufacturer/ crafts person and the customer and a wonderful level of care at all levels of production.

Christien Meindertsma I

I love this project by Christien Meindertsma and I can't wait to see the results of 'One sheep Sweater' knitted sweaters each one made from the wool of the only flock of Merino sheep in the Netherlands, owned by Matlee Kamp.
