are you dying to see a twist

Jeanie Feng is a 3rd year fashion student studying at derby university. Iv been given the pleasure of working with her whilst she puts together her final collection for the end of year graduation fashion show. Jeanie is inspired by textures such as brick, concrete and rust. She also uses graffiti as a concept for her work as well as the streets....You could call it broken streets... So are you dying to see a twist???

GRAFFITI

Some of jeanies designs have a prints that she had printed her self, on parts of the print there is graffiti. Graffiti is also something jeanie looked at for inspiration and to help build the concept of her designs.

I did some research on graffiti and tags, tags being the artists name. Over Easter i went to Amsterdam for four days and was in ore at how different artist spray over there its almost like it creates a story! whilst walking down one of the high streets i saw a dress in a shop, the whole dress had a graffiti print on it the fabric was amazing. I fell in love.



Graffiti has a lot of history behind it originating from the streets its like poetry and art in one, as well as identity.
