My graduate collection, A.U is the junction between my home and creative practice. The collection is a blend of feminine workwear and statement pieces that are reminiscent of the landscapes and structures present in Kalgoorlie. Bold, rust hues are mixed with saturated earth tones in a range of fabrics that plays with texture and silhouette.
The collection subverts masculine mining uniforms into a feminine context, as I felt like myself and my practice never belonged in the mining sphere. A.U maintains dignity and femininity in a patriarchal field though the exploration of garments.
