For her final graduate collection, Hannah initially looked towards the natural world for inspiration, focusing specifically at images of water that has been polluted by dye and ink waste of the textiles industry, as well as researching the effects that these environmental issues have on the surrounding communities. Hannah developed her colour palette from her own photographs of landscapes; these photographs also informed her yarn and fabric choices throughout the collection. The textural qualities of natural forms such as water and mountains inspired the sense of pattern, line and shape throughout the collection.
Hannah’s interest in clothing with a long life lead her to initially focus on using pre-loved denim and transforming it into something new and innovative, that somebody else can enjoy. She is inspired by the history of denim and how denim has been a part of the lives of so many people; from a vast array of sub-cultures and classes in societies throughout the centuries. From ancient Japanese Boro textiles to present day casual wear, Hannah is fascinated by the stories behind the clothing that people wear.
