Spring/Summer16 Brainstorm

I was fortunate enough to be able to sit in on the womenswear and accessories S/S16 brainstorm. This included many multiple presentations, powerpoints and videos from various designers looking at what trends are forecast for next years season, the colour palettes, prints, yarn and fabric choices as well as what the must haves are for next year. 

Internship - TrendBoards

It's not every day you get the opportunity to intern at one of the country's biggest company's, Marks and Spencer. I'm lucky enough to be working alongside the swimwear designers, working on their S/S 16 collection. 

Throughout the day I was putting together trend boards, of what I thought would work in their next collection. I was particularly interested in a tribal/aztec type print with bright, bold colours with macrame and crochet details. As well as looking at cover ups and finishing touches to the swimwear.
