The "Velocity Veil" project was inspired by my previous work in tennis sportswear and my interest in exploring textures and color in knits. This time, I wanted to convey movement and speed, drawing from Bridget Riley's art and the energy of stadium architecture. Through various experiments and techniques, I created designs that combined structure, texture, and color in new and innovative ways.

• I expanded my design approach by focusing on textures in knits and experimenting with color for the first time. Inspired by artists like Bridget Riley, I aimed to capture movement and speed in my designs.

​​

• Visits to stadiums influenced my mark-making techniques using acrylic structures and translucent binders to create dynamic patterns. I introduced 3D elements with ribbon and paper folding, adding depth and interest to my designs.

​​

• Advanced knitting techniques like racking, ripple, and stitch transfer helped create a variety of textures. I finalized a navy and white palette with pink accents after experimenting with shades inspired by stadiums, enhancing the collection’s visual appeal.

• Structural elements and angular paneling were influenced by stadium designs and Clair Macready’s historical sportswear aesthetics. The project taught me to persevere through challenges and embrace risks, especially with color.

​​

• It strengthened my passion for texture, structure, and innovation, motivating me to push the boundaries of knitwear design further.
