raining young students to become fashion designers today, is a complex challenge. With technical skills to acquire, new technologies being added

to traditonal ones which are still necessary to master garment specifications to understand, time management and methodolgy to develop - there is a lot to pack into the students time, ready to prepare them for the ever quickening pace of today’s fashion industry!And in educational terms, there is an addittional challenge - in this fascinating field of fashion, existing between art and industry, everything starts from the personalities of the future designers. Understanding their own universe, their reference systems, cultural background and individual creative matrix, is the basis on which to guide their curiosity, sharpen their vision, and help them to shape personal ideas. Creative intuitions must be transformed into new, sometimes surprising, and always wearable products, and coherent collections.At IFA Paris, we are fortunate to have a thriving bastion of strong and diverse talents, who come to Paris from all over the world, ready to eventually take their place in the competitive industry of which they dream.We wanted to share with you the work of a selection of these upcoming designers, from the three year Bachelors course in Fashion Design & Technology, and the Masters of Arts in Contemporary Fashion Design.We hope you will appreciate their creative endeavors as much as we do – they represent years of study, research and experimentation! We hope that this will give a small insight into the creative minds of a new generation, and perhaps ignite a curiosity to discover more…At IFA Paris we love their talent!

My inspiration for this collection comes from a song written by a famous Chinese vocalist. The name of the song is called ‘As Free as a Dream’. The song describes how and what the singer had gone through to become famous .The main theme is to describe the realities of society and how he had overcome all sorts of difficulties, pressure and hard working. He used freedom as in a dream to drive for his determination for success and to inspire himself when overcoming difficulties. He bel ieves the value of Freedom (as in a dream) can help him to relax, build up his strength and determination to become successful in fulfilling his dream at the end.

A l s o t h e d r a w o f m y collection as been inspired by the famous artist - Adam Martinakis -. I used contrast colors, strip and large shape patterns to reflect realities of society (beautiful, success and tough diff icult ies) . My choice is a mix of strong and thick materials (woolen y a r n , f e a t h e r s ) s t a n d fo r d e t e r m i n a t i o n a n d hardworking, while the soft wool thread represents freedom. At the end, the bright-orange color reflects bright future and great success of one's achievement.

Rob Haute is imagined from a future where technology enables humans to become superhuman. Thus, humans are able to trade their limitations for happiness through technology, in the ultimate Dream Bazaar. Leather and plastic fabrics are combined in the collection to represent the human and technological elements, while colours are selected to represent the range of human emotions.

My dream bazaar is where I can find all the traditions that we have forgotten about, but they used to be important to us. The things taht remind me of my childhood and bring back all the memories.

To respect all the traditions and to follow them can be like a dream nowadays. The Dream Bazaar indicates the culture as well as the traditions of each part of a country. That is the main inspiration of this collection

As a child, we can deny the reality of our eventual death; however, as we get older we become more conscious of the idea of death. We lose our grandparents, our parents, and our friends. Epicurus said, “Why should I fear death? If I am, death is not. If death is, I am not. Why should I fear that which cannot exist when I do?”

You see, I fear death. I know death exists. I plan for death. But resist death.

Therefore, my inspiration for this col lect ion is to accept my fear of death. I want to turn my fear into something beautiful. Death is such a dark thought; why not extract the good from it?

My collection is inspired by Dream Bazaar the endless possibilities of the everyday; The way everything forms you, everyone has their own story. Something insignificant to someone could mean the world to another. Random daily influences and powerful experiences can shape your mind; I am really attracted by the chaotic nature of a flea market, it reflects the chaotic nature of life. Antique and random objects, I wanted to capture this feeling of luxury that something old can be reworked and return as something brand new.

I printed my own fabric; faces and landscapes layered reworking and u p d at i n g t h e c l a s s i c g i n g h a m pattern, asymmetrical shapes in my clothes to contrast with what we consider ‘normal’, strange seams, combining unexpected m a t e r i a l s . C o l o u r s , textures, f ine materia l t r a n s f o r m a t i o n s dominate my collection

Through the collection I have s t r ived to insp i red peop le to question what it is that they really want and to turn that into a reality. Overall the collection conveys a celebration of life through its’ use of vibrant colours and re-thought garment structures. I have also used recycled materials to add an element of susta inabi l i ty and consciousness to the collection.

T h i s documentation defined the collection to be “raw and primitive”, hence several humble hand engineering textile techniques were u s e d t o a l i g n t o t h e fragility of the concept.

The collection was built on a l l natura l fabr ics such as pashmina , s i lk , l inen and cotton that were deconstructed, hand dyed and painted, p l e a t e d , g a t h e r e d , slashed and frayed.
