Muse

The Muse we have selected as a  group is John Cale, we picked him based on the reading list that was present in James Long's brief. We found that John Cale's band the Velvet underground was an experimental band. He was renowned for controversy and would preform on stage with sports masks over his face. His controversy is what lead my group into pushing the idea of a punk collection that has reference to sports wear due to his masks that he wore.

From researching john Cale I was interested in the links between himself and Andy Warhol. I want the knitwear collection to have links to the pop art culture. I decided to select a vivid colour palette that reflected John Cale's prime time of his career in the 70's.
