ARAMIDE GILLETT

"I was brought up by creatives, in every field, and music has been a pretty big constant. I listen to almost every kind of music, and that has a big influence over the way I move a pencil over a page."

SKYE WILLIMONT

CONCEPT: Traditional Borderlines

"My writing evoking all the arcs of the concept I chose from metaphors and also impressionist classical music"

TJ FINLAY

"Nobody in particular inspires me. It's more of an emotional or an environmental or an atmosphere. It's kind of like my relationship to a certain subject on a certain event that's happened; and how I mentally and emotionally interlink with that and how it reflects me as a person and so on.

WILLIAM PLANEY

CONCEPT: Traditional borderlines

"I want to visualize the eventual combining of human and machine (artificial intelligence). Elon Musk's startup "Neural Link" and electronic prothestics in general is of great influence in my work."

NAMITA KHADE

CONCEPT: 'Lovers, cultural boarders or our thoughts on art'

“I looked at Craig Green…he has the right balance of technically well-made clothes and creativity. My main inspiration came from looking at the village where my parents are from, in South India, and the way that women are raised there in comparison to the way that men are; as women in the western world, we don’t realise how much freedom we have.”

POPPY PIERCE

"I have been looking at how artists break traditional borderlines within their works, it is really interesting as there is so much to explore both visually and contextually. In order to progress my work and extend my understanding of fashion art and the world around me, I try and draw inspiration from multiple sources."

SMRITI LIMBU

CONCEPT: Traditional borderlines

"Inspiration for me comes from performance art and myself. I know that if I start with myself, wherever my inspiration takes me, I won't be creating something I just like the look of but I will also be educating myself. I also do 'performances' in my bedroom which I'm using as the focal point of my research. I like the minimalist aesthetic of performance art like 'Body Pressure' and by Bruce Nauman and some pieces by artists like Marina Abramović but I'm not a minimalist."

ERIC WANG

CONCEPT: Traditional borderlines

"Inspiration is everywhere in life, and careful observation of things that are easily overlooked in life. I especially like the shape of the structure in the design, I especially appreciate the design of Graig Green. I extracted the photography and concept of the photographer Francesca Woodman and applied it to my design."

ANQI JIAN

CONCEPT: Our thoughts on art

"I am inspired by Japanese Bamboo weaving in traditional and modern interpretations. Unfortunately, the japanese bamboo is coming to a limit of originality and scares new and young artists. In order to show the beauty and value of this traditional art to more people, I decided to design based on bamboo weaving this year."

RAPHAELLE BALME

"I think fashion is a subtle way to say out loud what you think.  fashion is greatly about risk and experimentation, which explains thechallenging environment it is."
