For my fourth year I have chosen to create a womenswear collection based upon the concept of the transformation of the woman. This transformation can be viewed in many different lights, for example, the transformation of Cinderella as she moves from a life of exploitation and misery into a life of beauty and abundance. It could be seen in the form of Vivien - the protagonist of the film Pretty Woman - who gradually moves out of a life of bitterness and brokenness into a life of joy and light. It could also be observed through the character Angel who appears in the Francine Rivers novel Redeeming Love who's life radically metamorphosises through the transformative power of unconditional love which she receives from Michael Hosea.
Ultimately, I want my collection to be centred around the pivotal moment of tranformation or transfiguration. Hence, it will incorporate elements of the old, the worn and the broken with elements of the fresh the new, the beautiful and the feminine.
