Also i also think that minimalist clothing is massively powerful evidently through the strong and sharp clean cut lines. what i like about this style/trend is that it contains a lot of precision and perfection... and when pulled of correctly its a work of art. Through this image i have been able to incorporate it into my brief by thinking about the finishes on my clothes such as clean cut trousers and structured shoulders ]]> 2016-09-09 18:38:15 UTC https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122855556 madison_raynor99 https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122859187 Whilst glancing though #minimalistouterwear on pinterest i was able to come across a more modern interpretation of a minimalist style as this outerwear garment not only has an added piece with sharp edges and clean cuts the main body of the garment has a breezy feel to it although it has clean cut edges and finishes to the hem and sleeves of the garment. this image has inspired when creating my own collection because of the diverse shapes you can create but still maintain the minimalist style ]]> 2016-09-09 18:48:16 UTC https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122859187 madison_raynor99 https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122862697 This item of clothing really appeals to me as it could be used and made as a unisex garment which is the style i really like ! ( as a personal lover of boys clothes) this has inspired to to maybe create something that looks and suits bother gender types.]]> 2016-09-09 18:57:38 UTC https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122862697 madison_raynor99 https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122865708 (bad quality apologies)
My minimalist style mood bored form last year.

Another image that has inspired me is a structured volume dress... this is made by a material which i have enjoyed working with before ... paper, paper is a very difficult thing to work with (especially when it comes to paper cuts) despite this paper is a material that you a promised a clean finish and a sharp edge. Moreover paper can be constructed into three dimensional forms adding multiple shapes, depths and dimensions]]> 2016-09-09 19:14:24 UTC https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122867335 madison_raynor99 https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122877762 Backs up what i think and feel towards the trend]]> 2016-09-09 20:01:09 UTC https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122877762 madison_raynor99 https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122884599 personally i would find this rally difficult to recreate and add structure into my work bit its something i do wish to explore. i was drawn to this image by the added features and the structure this garment has to it but yet its still so sleek and sophisticated. Although this style of garment is pushing the boundaries it has inspired to add three dimensional pockets and features to my designs. ]]> 2016-09-09 20:42:48 UTC https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122884599 madison_raynor99 https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122887068 The minimalist style has recently become huge in the world of networking and the social media platform especially blogging. The simplistic style hasn't just taken over the internet and fashion its also huge in furniture and art. People became infatuated with the idea " less is more "

Minimalism can be summed up in three points
- Impersonal austerity
(featureless, anonymous)
(ext-ream plainness , simplicity)
- Anti - figurative forms
(diverted form the real object , such as the human body or human real life objects)
- Democratic/ accessible 
( its accessible therefore making it cheep and simplistic)]]> 2016-09-09 21:03:37 UTC https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122887068 madison_raynor99 https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122972249 "skip the detail and opt for clean lines"]]> 2016-09-11 17:47:48 UTC https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122972249 madison_raynor99 https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122973114 "don't ask me about inspiration... image is a simple way of saying complicated things" Qiu hao's famous words.
He started his first ready to wear line in 2001 called "neither nor" which sells in nine department stores world wide" a few years later he took his creativity abroad and studied at Central Saint Martins. later on establishing his second line it was produced in 2006
The image below is his 2015 minimalist movement that is absoultly stunning. consisting of clan cut lines simple designs and clean cut edges. which is everything i'm looking for. Hao has inspired me to look at innovative shapes and silhouettes.

This is important because overall its telling me that no matter how simple the design its embracing the simplicity and in a way vulnerability of the garment by striping it bare.]]> 2016-09-11 18:34:03 UTC https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122974586 madison_raynor99 https://padlet.com/madison_raynor99/j9r3nfrg7e9k/wish/122975686 As a Surabayan native designer her fashion line is beginning to sky rocket. specializing in contemporary fashion she describes her work as: modern ,minimalist ,bold ,simple.
