From dresses to jackets, the collection is here. Explore Hannah's 2017 fall collection through these forest inspired photos.
The Collection.
This dark, royal blue dress is perfect for the autumn season to be used at any professional event, varying from weddings to proms. It was originally created by Hannah for her own 'end of school' prom and was created within the space of 4 months. The maxi dress stretches from shoulder to toe and only uses a chiffon material to create a flowing effect on the skirt and the overall dress.
Blue & Golden flowered Prom dress.
The dress also features a gold, sown in flower pattern on the waist of the skirt, inspired by the nature of the forrest. It uses a long zip at the back to fasten the dress and to hold it in place whilst being worn. The straps hang slightly off the shoulder and are also accompanied by supporting straps going over the shoulder. This dress is described as 'one of Hannah's most impressive pieces of work' due to no previous fashion designing experience.
'Little red riding Hood' inspired dress.
Due to the flowery lace material, it creates an elegant yet stylish feel to the dress. This is also reinforced by the carmine red colour the material uses, making it stand out and eye catching to others around. In order to keep the dress in place, Hannah designed it to have an underdress which uses a cotton material. As the lace on top of the underdress is see through, the underdress is therefore dark purple, making the two colours contrast beautifully together. It also features pockets on either side of the dress, but are hidden by the red fabric.
The dress also uses a 'v' neck line, which gives the user the choice of styling it up with a fancy necklace or just to keep it plain and simple (as Hannah has done in the following photo's). The straps of the dress are spaghetti styled - meaning thin, string like straps. This is to support the weight of the dress but still not to distract others from the actual dress itself. It can be styled with nude stilettos or black heels, along side a nude or black clutch bag with gentle jewellery of a similar colour to these accessories. Perfect for all year for any formal occasion.
Tailored Jacket.
This tailored jacket suits well for work, weddings, special occasions or generally for everyday. It can be styled with a long dark brown or black dress with heels for the special occasion, dark coloured suit underneath with small heels for work, or for everyday style, it can work well with a light coloured top, jeans and nude coloured heels - Hannah's favourite pick.
Even though the outside fabric of the jacket is heavy wool, the inside of the jacket is different. For comfront reasons, Hannah used rayon on the inside of the jacket - which can be described as silk like. As the outside of the jacket is quite rough and uncomfortable, Hannah decided to use rayon on the inside, making it more comfortable for the user. It also makes the jacket look professional from the inside.
PlainWhite T & Denim Jeans.
To complete the outfit, is Hannah's very own personalised denim jeans. These bootleg trousers are designed for both male and female due to there generic and causal look. The jeans feature a zip for fastening and an elastic waist line to ensure they fit comfortably around the users waist. The jeans also feature two back pockets as well as two front pockets, making the jeans functional. They are hemmed all around the edges of the jeans as well as the knees, as the lining clearing shows this - however, this completes the edgy yet causal look to the jeans and the outfit together.
The causal plain white T isn't as plain as you'd think. The short sleeves are folded upwards, creating a more modern and stylish look to the top. The neckline circles around the top of the neck like any other ordinary t-shirt. However, Hannah cut out two triangles on either side of the t-shirt and replaced them by sowing in a dark purple cotton fabric. This spices up the plain t-shirt to give it an edgy look. The top is slim-fit and fits comfortably around the user with no irritating materials, making the top functional and comfortable for the user.
