"Keep the Link, Break the Chain"

"Keep the Link, Break the Chain"

Featured at Graduate Fashion Week 2008.
Based on ideas derived from the 200th anniversary of the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade in 2007.
Accessoried pieces such as hoops, ankles, bracelet pieces and spherical weight details are symbolic of the restrictions of the slave trade.
An ethnic influence of coral brights, black and ecru combined with one-shoulder, body-wrapping airy fabrics and scarves, chiffons & jersey are emphasised.
