As a young creative, in July 2023, I graduated from the UAL: London College of Fashion with First-class honours in (BA) Bespoke Tailoring and an opportunity to open the graduate showcase at LCF. My primary objective is to explore the fashion-making and fashion-design sphere and expand my knowledge of this creative world to the full extent. I started my journey by exploring the base of the Fashion industry- the bespoke world. Making everything from scratch, from taking measurements to pattern cutting and fittings to hand finishing. At that moment of my journey, my eyes fell on ready-to-wear and mass-produced fashion. Straight after my graduation, I faced an apprenticeship opportunity for Acne Studios within the pattern design and atelier department. This experience gave me significant knowledge about the industry, business and creative aspects of a developed fashion brand, and the realisation that the ready-to-wear sector of fashion is like a playground or blank sheet for artists and creative decisions.
