ORNAMENTAL GODDESS THE KEY ELEMENTS TO THIS TREND ARE:
- Contemporary twist on English floral prints.

- Miami feel, cool and fresh prints ready for the beach.
- 1950's Art Deco geometric prints updated with mashed up animal prints.

- Mixing traditional screen printing with digital and contemporary sublimation print.
- Heavily inspired by new fresh talents like Holly Fulton, Matthew Williamson and Thankoon.

Helen Proudlock is a fresh emerging BA (Hons) Fashion Textile Designer from the UK. Her eye-catching collection of fabulously bold statement prints are clearly pattern focused, which show a interesting mix of various cultural ideas. I really love this collection and it has lots of potential to give other creative designers inspiration and trend direction. I definitely can see this trend catching on and be seen on the catwalks very soon.
