I also make sure to visit fabric stores at least a handful of times while making drafts. Materiality plays a huge part in informing the form of the design. Stiff fabrics naturally suggest certain forms that may oppose flowy ones, for instance.&nbsp; For this collection, I primarily used wool gabardine, chiffon, muslin, ribbed knit, rayon, canvas, among others.&nbsp; https://williamhu.design/Creation Thu, 06 Apr 2023 20:44:01 +0000 William Hu https://williamhu.design/Creation Creation I then repeated the previous steps (cutting fabric, sewing the pieces together, fitting, adjust) until I was satisifed with the final product, as well as ironed seams down for a clean finish. The following are photos of the pieces off and on body.&nbsp; This year, I also experimented with hardware — fireman-like clips and clasps, various knots, etc. I hand weaved all the knot clasps using Chinese button knots, monkey fist knots, and freestyling loops.&nbsp; <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fda840afd043a0acb2fbfea1db0468227b8ba933f2543a336f98139dff77c7f2/IMG_9661.jpeg" data-mid="174546386" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fda840afd043a0acb2fbfea1db0468227b8ba933f2543a336f98139dff77c7f2/IMG_9661.jpeg" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/51187768eecef023e35ab3b6702d8764b596c6137f80fc6475c7b1c4843d17cd/IMG_9664.jpeg" data-mid="174546387" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/51187768eecef023e35ab3b6702d8764b596c6137f80fc6475c7b1c4843d17cd/IMG_9664.jpeg" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/9fb1abc958e53c50d7765d9f6ebc412e752f3de918a986507e8f942802049b1e/IMG_9663.jpeg" data-mid="174546388" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/9fb1abc958e53c50d7765d9f6ebc412e752f3de918a986507e8f942802049b1e/IMG_9663.jpeg" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2c76c167303ebca39096bfed9b825e0436e96d31f759facd574f10035b488dbc/69817756149__EB7CDEB8-4B57-4B46-AB08-55C8EAF2F813.jpeg" data-mid="174546389" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2c76c167303ebca39096bfed9b825e0436e96d31f759facd574f10035b488dbc/69817756149__EB7CDEB8-4B57-4B46-AB08-55C8EAF2F813.jpeg" /> <img width="1536" height="2049" width_o="1536" height_o="2049" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/50c090f30d97726c9a7b0e57899316dcd6a94a5c3765822690881fc003fd077d/BCFE62A8-2977-4B9D-849E-8E8BCDC60D06.JPG" data-mid="174546392" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/50c090f30d97726c9a7b0e57899316dcd6a94a5c3765822690881fc003fd077d/BCFE62A8-2977-4B9D-849E-8E8BCDC60D06.JPG" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/1fc9037aecd8f2e66194702b2dbafa568c2f60954550aac8fad1e8c3dc8e9513/IMG_9666.jpeg" data-mid="174546397" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/1fc9037aecd8f2e66194702b2dbafa568c2f60954550aac8fad1e8c3dc8e9513/IMG_9666.jpeg" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fa26d2c3604d41c1184639d04f51110a9e13de08c60810dd6dab3d94b1417ddb/IMG_9684.jpeg" data-mid="174546497" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fa26d2c3604d41c1184639d04f51110a9e13de08c60810dd6dab3d94b1417ddb/IMG_9684.jpeg" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/349590f7df3762541c230a3d647b73e2f91cbe989dedc126a97ff200ca6078f1/69818891545__D0A97B1D-3CB0-40B2-AE16-C465A2C0B097.jpeg" data-mid="174546390" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/349590f7df3762541c230a3d647b73e2f91cbe989dedc126a97ff200ca6078f1/69818891545__D0A97B1D-3CB0-40B2-AE16-C465A2C0B097.jpeg" /> <img width="4032" height="3024" width_o="4032" height_o="3024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2ad707fa467940a47d924a8324a04129646933dddb8c76fb1b25d0f784bfdada/69486034319__32682D7D-E1B0-4E34-8A3F-FD658EA7CB05.jpeg" data-mid="174546378" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2ad707fa467940a47d924a8324a04129646933dddb8c76fb1b25d0f784bfdada/69486034319__32682D7D-E1B0-4E34-8A3F-FD658EA7CB05.jpeg" /> <img width="2097" height="2796" width_o="2097" height_o="2796" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c571b9a5f50ff3b747f2d3a26e766f01e5485c7766063fdde3a55a10c506f379/IMG_9686.jpeg" data-mid="174546383" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c571b9a5f50ff3b747f2d3a26e766f01e5485c7766063fdde3a55a10c506f379/IMG_9686.jpeg" /> <img width="1170" height="1753" width_o="1170" height_o="1753" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f103c4e984e2f08e0c3f16d5fa18b5c38852c71f1d47cc16fb1ecb706004eda7/IMG_8895.jpg" data-mid="174546531" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f103c4e984e2f08e0c3f16d5fa18b5c38852c71f1d47cc16fb1ecb706004eda7/IMG_8895.jpg" /> https://williamhu.design/On-the-Stage Fri, 07 Apr 2023 03:04:09 +0000 William Hu https://williamhu.design/On-the-Stage On the Stage With over 1,000 people in attendance, the show truly served as a platform for all designers to showcase their hardwork.

I am a story teller. Through jazz guitar, I communicate emotion; through making clothes, I share my experiences; through UX, I design based on what users tell me.&nbsp; I am hungry to learn.There are many ways to approach a task. I listen to what others have to say and learn about their perspective.&nbsp; I am a problem-solver. If I do not know something, I will figure out how to solve it. From online resources to asking peers, no problem is to difficult to tackle.&nbsp; I am driven and I motivate others.&nbsp; For large projects, I get myself to work on them consistently even if no one holds me accountable. Simultanesouly, I uplift others and help them stay motivated. I am focused on disovering the possibility within “the impossible”. I do not reject ideas because they are deemed “impossible”— I approach ideas openly. Many great disoveries were once subjects to doubt and reluctance.&nbsp;
