Fashion Show 2009

A collaboration between Derek Bowers and Brian Walker for STAG, the Scottish Textile Academic Group. 

As competition winners, both were asked to combine their initial ideas of typography (Derek Bowers) and illustration (Brian Walker) in order to design posters to promote STAG's annual Fashion Show. The duo then went on to produce VIP invitations and programs, with the latter being handed out at the event.

For the posters, both Derek and Brian screen printed the design onto a fabric called chiffon. They then stitched this onto a backing of heavy stock that displayed information about the event."

This style of work is exquisite, the way that the print has been created using screen printing makes this a perfect design for me personally, i love type and think that there are endless possibilities which you can create using it, the way that the print has a layer over the top which then when placed down creates the full outcome and makes the front be linked with fashion by creating a butterfly out of the equipment needed for fashion.
