ABSTRACT AGARICUM

May 2020

Abstract Agaricum was a project I did in my second year studying printed textiles. In this project I looked at fungus growth and created a collection of digital designs and accompanying embellishments for a couture fashion market.

Abstract Agaricum: Inspiration

FINAL COLLECTION

For my final collection I developed six designs with two alternative colourways and scales. I created these designs with a couture fashion market in mind, and envisioned them printed on silk or chiffon with beaded embellishments.
