Vintage Americana: Design Realisation
Design Work:
Taking inspirations from shapes of 1950's classic cars such as the Ford Thunderbird, the innovative pattern cutting reflects the cars defining features such as the headlights, bumper and car tail. These details are combined with classic 50's styling such as the circle skirt and playsuit.
