Summary

As a pair, we have created this final collection following our research on the predictions of rising sea levels witch in future will cause major flooding. We have designs a range of garments that are inspired by the adaptations of underwater animals taking there functions and creating them into ideas that could help us. We have done this by using waterproof and breathable materials to create these fashionable designs ranging from latex sleeves to wool and lycra trousers. The garments include relaxed fitting pants and jumpers as well as tight insulating sweaters and all in one body suits. Since the designs were inspired by different animals the factors and inspiration for each garment varied and so to bring them together as a collection we used a series of prints designed on Photoshop from an original print created using bubbles and paint inspired by the pattern with in a turtle shell. The versatile materials have given each garment life and character while the continuous print embodied throughout the designs bring this collection together as a whole.
