The reputation for Central Saint Martin\u2019s design school comes assured, thanks in no small part to the notable alumni who have stalked the hallowed halls of 1 Granary Square. Eager to spot the next fresh talent headed for stardom, fashion editors are practically tripping over themselves whenever CSM\u2019s MA show rolls around. The well-informed, however, know that we shouldn\u2019t let the Masters students outshine the BA graduating class. After all, CSM\u2019s biggest names \u2014 John Galliano, Phoebe Philo and Alexander McQueen, to name but a few \u2014 are graduates of BA, not MA, programmes.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Accordingly, instead of chronicling the Central Saint Martin\u2019s master\u2019s thesis show, we\u00a0 got backstage access at the internal BA student thesis show. Though the designers were appropriately stressed, we\u00a0remained languid watching models shimmy into Camper shoes reconceptualised as dinosaur claws (by @firpal<\/a>) and we clomped around asking the designers what their collections were about and taking names when a garment struck our fancy.<\/span><\/p>\n

It soon became obvious that both CSM students and tutors aren\u2019t pointlessly dogged by tradition, though it\u2019s still considered chic to maintain an amicable respect for technical prowess. The most fascinating contemporary designers are contemplating their own mortality, \u00e0 la @harrie.bradshaw<\/a>\u2019s very own funeral on the runway, and @comic_ans<\/a>\u2019 mockery of the human desire to survive the elements\u2014her collection is made from found outdoor-wear and gear. Here\u2019s what the talent had to say about their work on the big day. And if you see something inspiring, don\u2019t fret\u2014the show is on display from 20th- 24th June<\/span>\u00a0at Central Saint Martins.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m gonna miss CSM in that we have so much collaboration with other departments. I\u2019ve worked with 3D printers this year and everyone\u2019s really friendly and welcoming in the other facilities even though you don\u2019t technically belong there. [recently] I\u2019ve been looking into fluid dynamics and false memory and fluid dynamic paintings and kinetic sculptures.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMy collection is about immigration. I\u2019ve used my Spanish heritage as the visual reference point. The folk dress from Aragon. Robert Capa who did pictures of people fleeing the Spanish Civil War. Alexander Calder\u2019s journey mimics mine as I\u2019m from Miami.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s jokey outdoors wear and it’s a comment on green capitalism and buying outdoorswear to feel like you\u2019re healthy. There\u2019s a tree hugger [and] sexy solar panels. It’s all made out of old broken equipment from outdoor centres and second-hand tents.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve enjoyed helping. It’s different seeing works that\u2019s not yours. Being as helpful as possible and learning new techniques. You can give more ideas and it\u2019s less precious.<\/span><\/p>\n
