Fashion Side.
My works lately have been avant garde inspired. as we all know avant garde is very experimental and beyond norm.

I started developing an interest in fashion at a very young age. when jeans of my age didnt fit and i had to wear clothing twice my size. So instead of asking for new clothing from my parents, i would put together the old stuff that did not fit, paint them and those would be my new clothes. it was quiet fun whilst it lasted.I'm mainly interested in transformation of denim. This is reflective on the two illustrated pieces where i have used denim pants to make dresses. I'm into recycling of used clothes!Work shown: Jump start project.
Title: innovation via trash

Its a size 32 denim dress made using a pair of cargo pants, denim pants, jute for accessories, pistachio shells and bottle tops for deco, can opener asearings and wool and thread.the garment is 100% hand sewn.
