Sketchbook Image, Claire Mclachlan
Knitted fabric, photographed on mannequin, digitally altered and adjusted
An enduring fascination with all things engineered, constructed and modular lies at the centre of my practice.
For this collection the grace and power of exposed steel skeletons and other dynamic architectural forms inspired an exploration of the interplay between curve and angle. Through the medium of knit I have developed fabrics and fashion that play on this relationship to create a statement womenswear collection.
