Putting the Pieces Back Together

My graduate collection ‘Putting the pieces back together’ is a concept based on the appreciation of life’s simple pleasures after Covid 19. This stemmed from looking into art therapy techniques, specifically jigsaw puzzles. Through my explorations I have learnt that people often engage in these methods of self-care to give a sense of escapism while also helping the individual to stay present and in the now. I wanted to convey this feeling as a self-expression through clothing by demonstrating it as bright colours, bold pattern and structured shape that also flows. This collection represents the bitter–sweet reality that when the world goes back to normal after the pandemic, we will appreciate life’s simple pleasures a lot more.
