ABBIE GOUGH
Welcome to my about me page
Hi, my name is Abbie and I am a final year at Nottingham Trent University studying BA Fashion Design.
My practice explores challenging the male gaze surrounding sexualisation and objectification through alternative tailoring techniques and unconventional materials.
I want to change the narrative around this topic and drive towards a positive outcome where all women are celebrated no matter how much skin is on show. By stripping away these negative connotations, I feel womenswear will have a much more inclusive and non-judgemental environment where design can be used to enhance every individual’s own story.
My final major project reflects my ethos of women being a super muse and approaching this is a new and exciting way. I used armour as my concept to allow my ethos to be represented in a strong and powerful way.
