I’m Hannah Thorogood a year 3 graduate from Ravensbourne university. I specialise in textiles and Menswear. Over the years studying I have developed further skills in research and development pattern cutting, draping, manufacturing and a strong passion for textiles and details.
My final year collection Boys Do Ballet is a fusion of Ballet and American football. The blend of the two sports has heavily influenced the whole collection from the textiles all the way to the silhouette and colour palette creating this fusion of masculine meets feminine.
The research begun from a personal hobby of mine,ballet which I have done since a very young age and progressed to an interest of Men in the ballet industry which I have done further research into for my final collection and dissertation. I juxtaposed this with the masculine sport of American football as the bold prints and silhouettes inspired me.
The development of the collection begun with draping and manipulating American football jerseys and mixing this with ballet inspired textiles fusing the two together to create a masculine meets feminine collection ‘BOYS DO BALLET ‘
