Autumn/Winter trends 2013

Hey folks.
As part of my work placement with the lovely Rachael Taylor I have been researching trends for Autumn/Winter 2013. The search has thrown up some consistent trends such as geometrics, alongside more quirky trends such as 'Curiosity' as featured by trend bible.

I particularly enjoy the trends featured by trendbible for adults and children, the quirky and fun 'hunter/gatherer' vibe is kooky and plays on something new for print and pattern. I specifically love the earthy colours and tones chosen to accentuate the animal motifs and blocky geometric patterns.

Enjoy.

For shame...

It’s been a while folks but very exciting stuff to come. Yours truly starts a placement with reputed textile designer Rachael Taylor in a few days, and can’t wait to get stuck in!

So the next couple of weeks I will be posting about my experience working with the lovely lady, and I apologise in advance if I sound like a kid in a sweet shop!

Until then I will update the blog with my most recent work from my second year of studying Textile Design at Uni of Leeds. I’m going into third year now and a cap and gown never looked so scary!

Keep posted and enjoy!
Kelly :)
