FRANCES COOKE

Graduating capsule collection for AA in Fashion Design from Cilker School of Art and Design, Saratoga CA.

​

Won the annual fashion department Alyce Parsons scholarship award for a graduating line.

​

Inspired by the eucalyptus trees lining my home town, and the shadows they cast on my living room floor, I developed a capsule line of streetwear for the final class of my degree which blends these organic lines with the American workwear I love.

​

I experimented with natural dyes and shibori techniques to dye my knit pieces, using avocado skins and stones, onion skins and eucalyptus leaves. See my process book for this collection below.
