Produced by S. T. Dupont, Jet8
clothing is a contemporary, innovative and luxury French Brand. Jet8 came to my
attention due to very recently starting to produce
exclusively for Harvey Nichols. I was initially drawn in by the
pattern within their knits; many of them relating brilliantly to my
drawings and the pattern within my weave. I find the designs very
optical (particularly within the first jumper), which I didn't think
was possible within knit. Work specific to this would be a
challenge for me to produce on the domestic sewing machines as it takes a
lot of time to plan and is made though a programmed machine.
I specifically love the amount
of varied pattern within the last jumper, which is something that I did
greatly within my weave. I would like to experiment with many different
knit techniques (using punchcards that relate well to my initial drawings),
within one knit sample. In terms of my previous post, I love the idea of using
mohair to demonstrate the soft lines within my drawings and using a plain black
wool to indicate the hard lines cutting up the image.
I could see my knit designs within a fashion company something similar to this.
