PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Fashion is an explicit communication of self and the culture you represent. This project seeks to explore the effect of migration on print design, fashion, and our society, through a collection of designs for luxury womenswear. I have found both fashion and migration to be great catalysts of change and that, over time, the diversity that the movement of people brings has helped form our society into who we are, both individually and as a nation. It is a fact that migration not only enriches design but our everyday life. This project tells the story of my Grandmother’s migration from Belize to the UK in 1960.

AWARD CRITERIA

Print and colour are at the heart of everything we do. We will be awarding a print design or collection of designs that are ideal for the Tu customer. The winning artwork must complement our existing customer handwriting and demonstrate a creative new direction.  Our award winners should share our passion for design, sustainability and push our innovation forward.
