TALBOT RUNHOLF FALL WINTER 2011/2012

I realize that I haven't posted in a while!
So just an update on whats been going on :)

I passed college and got into Falmouth University to study 
BA (Hons) Fashion/Performance Sportswear Design!

They set me a summer project; Shirts.
 This would then lead into my 1st project once I got there.
I had to explore the history, politics and different cultures within shirts, which I
found quite interesting once I got into it :)
But the best part of all was finding a brand/designer that had subverted the shirt!

I came across Talbot Runhof;
a duo mix of an American (Johnny Talbot) and a German (Adrian Runhof)
There Fall Winter 2011/2012 Ready-to-wear collection was to die for!
  It was also perfect as they had subverted the shirt!
