Alison Woodhouse transforms the cozy texture of knitwear into sculptural fashion pieces. In her latest collection, the English knitwear designer creates garments that are a kaleidoscope of colors and shapes. Entitled 'Capture,' the collection was Woodhouse's final year project and part of the Graduate Fashion Week in London. Yet, with such a skillful collection it is hard to believe that Woodhouse is just a student.
The emerging designer specializes in feral and hand knit each of her garments combing traditional approaches with new techniques. The beautifully constructed sportswear knits, from oversized cardigans to low back dresses, use vivid woven fabrics that meld together like a rainbow. Filled with character, the collection's mismatched styling works together effortlessly, proving that Alison Woodhouse is a fashion name on the rise.
