Since working in the industry with a successful interior furnishings company, I have come to realise the importance of always considering the current/upcoming trends, to be able to create a strong collection. I think I have been naïve in the past to believe that just because I'm not working within the fashion aspect of textiles, that I don't need to know what is happening on the catwalk and within the creative world around me. The April issue of HOMES&GARDENS allowed me to further understand the trends for Spring Summer 2015 and I hope to take inspiration from these to strengthen my work.
I've also taken into consideration the work created by Margo Selby and what trends would work well alongside her current collections, therefore I haven't included all of the given S/S trends.

TREND FOUR - OUTER SPACE
