Exploration: An Eccentric Affair.

Traveling has always interested me and I have seen my fair share of countries throughout my life. One day I will set off with or without friends, a backpack full of clothes and some cash and I will set off round the world. I believe to go on such an adventure you need to be an eccentric person.. Therefor my collection is based upon the adventure of one eccentric man, Albert Einstein. At age 22 Albert went on a quest to find what he wanted to do in life and he crossed the Alps to do so. My collection is inspired by his adventure, the intricate details of his work, and his eccentric and bold personalty all of which I have gathered through research. The sheepskin, heavy outwear, and chunky knits are present to deal with the arctic climates he would have endured, the intricacy of his work are reflected in mine, with lazer cutting, flocking and by shaving the fur. Other aspects such as Alberts refusal to wear socks as he saw no point in them come across in the collection as well as the cuff-less shirts he wore..
