My name is Calum and I’ve been looking at hermits and how different parts of their lives can be seen through clothes. I’ve placed focus on turning small details like waterproof layering into something that informs an overall shape and silhouette. One aim was that each garment could tell a different story about a purpose they serve or the life they could lead when worn by a hermit while also serving each other to complete a cohesive outfit.
Biography
I started making clothes in the beginning of the pandemic and came to leith school of art to learn more about the creative process. While being here I’ve been able to try lots of different disciplines and techniques that have enhanced my fashion practice massively. Next year I’m going to study at UAL, London College of Fashion doing womenswear. I hope to take with me the multidisciplinary approach I’ve learned while at LSA.
