The inspiration.

“The main source of inspiration for this collection is Japanese film maker Yasujirō Ozu. I had been watching one of his films “Good Morning” (a comedy from 1959) a few weeks earlier and the strong stylised visuals had really stuck with me. I decided to research his work further and was really drawn to the warm autumnal colouring of the film sets, the checked pattern interiors and the costume details of the characters. The kids in the film have a chunky horizontal stripe motif across their knitted jumpers so this is one detail in particular that inspired me. I turned it into something a little more minimal and modern; delicate contrast stripes, and added it to this season’s knitwear pieces.”
