Winchester School of Art Show starts at 16:00pm
“To Celebrate Africa Fashion Week 2024, the MA Fashion Design and MA Textile Design programmes at Winchester School of Art present REIMAGINED, a vibrant intersection of creativity, diversity and cultural exploration. We worked In collaboration with renowned designer, Samson Soboye,”
This project was curated by The Company at WSA, as as this inspirational collection demonstrates, collisions and contrasts, utilising heritage and digital textile processes, as well as creative, transformational pattern cutting that encompasses zero-waste techniques are at the forefront of contemporary clothing design.
In this way traditional and contemporary methodologies are combined, in the pursuit of fashion and textile designs that evidence ethical practice and aesthetic innovation. We are proud to showcase our talented students’ boundary-pushing journey through African heritage. This is where tradition meets contemporary cutting-edge practice.
