Designer Research: Margo Selby


Margo Selby

I have found Margo Selby's 2014 tribal collection to be extremely influential to my second collection. I feel that our work shares similar qualities, such as repetition, strong patterns, vibrant use of colour, and is for a high end market, although not fashion related. The busy nature of her designs is something that I want to incorporate into my own sampling, and I find her use of repeat pattern  striking. Another aspect of her work which I feel is influential to my own practice is the faint structural qualities found through her compositions, for example I like the way the stripes sit with other shapes in order to make the designs look more three dimensional and geometric. Using new techniques such as double cloth are also something I would like to experiment with further into the next unit.
