NG by Hilary Ng

Massey University

A collection demonstrating a personal exploration and research into ideas centered around shape; with the ability to create and control volume and fullness in a calculated way. Ng created an overall aesthetic that is clean, balanced and controlled.

Through sampling I explored the possibilities of what I was able achieve in terms of creating and controlling volume and fullness through manipulating traditional patternmaking techniques. I also experimented with different treatments of materials, fusible interlinings and construction techniques that could aid keeping shape like seaming. I wanted to see what was possible simply with pattern making and construction techniques but without the use of any rigid materials, or underlying structures to hold up the shapes.
