Shortcuts Vol. 1

Fashion Film

Designers Statement: “Shortcuts’, was formed whilst working as a painter and decorator; looking at how my colleagues and I were hacking and modifying our clothing. I personally defined shortcuts as hacks or modifications done to clothing to enhance it in terms of functionality, comfortability, aesthetics or longevity.”

Manifesto: “Integrity, Innovation, Slow and Local. This is perpetuated throughout my collection in ways including - sourcing all my fabric from a local recycling initiative, creating a zero-waste pattern-cutting technique derived from photogrammetry and spending on average less than £2 per garment on material costs.”

Director: Margo Roe
