Harley Kyle  My collection is based on unfinished architecture, which has been something that has inspired me time and time again. Taking architecture and viewing it from a different perspective, before it becomes a finished structure and dissecting the aspects within. It’s deconstruction without reaching the level of decay. I incorporated textile manipulations as a way to elevate garments displaying this through an illustrative element using contrast stitching and sheer fabrics, in the form of a structure. I created cut-outs by using the negative space in place of floor plans, using patchwork as a nod to construction and leaving raw finishes. My final work is heavily derived from my design process, where I try to use experimental techniques and combine them including sculptures, printmaking, collages and digital work. After college, I am continuing with further education and growing my clothing brand.
