Welcome to my newest series: Watch Me Design A Fashion Collection. It's a little self-explanatory. I'll be designing a collection, sometimes I'll narrate a lot, talk you through my process, sometimes I'll just let y'all watch me work.

I follow the Fashion Design Process I teach in schools and here on YouTube, but this series won't be a 1 video = 1 step in the design process format. I'mma go as slow as I want!

In this first installment, I discuss what I've been finding inspiring lately and how I go about collecting images.

If you want to learn the Fashion Design Process, check out this playlist here:    • Fashion Design Process

    Just a bio student wandering by, admiring someone enveloped in a different kind of passion.
  • Maybe this is strange but this is exactly the type of series I was looking for. Nothing inspires me quite like other people exercising their creativity!
  • @Pepperthecory
    I like the idea of hyper femininity and masculinity in fashion that is completely separated from gender and works for both men and women. The meshing of the two as well can be really fascinating.
  • I am a complete beginner and you have completely turned me on to the creative process. and the past week i've been obsessed with Boro so for you to bring it up - and connect it to zero waste fashion - is SO COOL. Thank you for what you do, time to get practicing!

    This is the best game-playing show in YouTube 😂
  • @yuvan1999
    YES!!! YESS!!!! YEEESSSSS!!!!! This is one of those videos I never knew I wanted, but now that it exists, I FRICKIN NEED it to survive!! Even though your Design Process series was INCREDIBLY helpful, seeing someone actually go through the process of designing a collection would be an absolute perfect way to learn, in my opinion! Simply cannot wait to see how this series (and your collection) goes!!! And thank you so so soooo much for making this series!! <3 <3 <3
  • @rhondaziman562
    I love what you're saying about reducing waste, and not pattern-matching in order to save fabric. wonderful messages to spread among fashion designers of the future, thank you!
  • @Aquarellina
    I'm not into fashion really - studied product design now an illustrator... but it is sooo fun to listen to your lectures I think I've found a new channel to watch!
  • @Skoben2000
    I' in LOVE with that BORO book. I hate waste. I hate all of the clothing in the landfills. I hate new garments that constantly use new fabrics which the fabric process wreaks havoc on our environment. This Japanese style is right up my ally. It's beautiful, it's charming, It's a story, it's alive!
  • @bubblegumziee
    You are literally my favorite fashion teacher! I'm gonna credit you as soon as possible when I'm becoming a legendary fashion designer someday<3
  • @jasminehks
    This vide gave me LIFE!!! Your knowledge about the fashion industry is extremely fascinating 😍 I could watch these videos all day! Thank you for sharing and teaching. 🙇🏻‍♀️🙏🏼
  • @Priya-sj7bz
    Zoe you are amazing, your content is one of a kind and I just want you to know that I appreciate everything that you do. Your presence on YouTube is truly inspirational. THANK YOU for simply being the artist that you truly are and for being authentically Y0U!

    I just got accepted at the Antwerp academie at only 18 years old... I was really happy until I realized I actually have to do it now haha, these videos help me a lot. Thanks for making them!
  • @DawnDevine
    LOVE IT - I am totally inspired. As a costume designer, I get stuck in a rut of designing only costumes projects. I think I'm going to make some clothing for myself! Thanks for the inspo - love your channel!
  • @Anna-vr1zq
    I'm a third semester student and I'm working on a knit collection inspired by crystals atm so this is absolutely perfect! I was drawing in my sketchbook while watching, can't wait to make this a regular thing ❤️
  • @TheFashionRunUp
    Yes! A daily uniform is everything! I don't wear the exact same thing every day, but similar variations of colors and silhouettes, which helps me quickly create solid outfits that I know work so I can run out the door! Also, I'm a fashion designer but rarely create full collections from start to finish and need this refresher! Like you, I also miss designing full collections. So trying to do it more often on my own!
  • I´ve been all afternoon lost in your videos (like I do sometimes) and you always make me have new ideas and concepts that I didn´t imagine to learn and I really appreciate that, I thank you so much for doing this and I really look forward to become as knowledgeable and talented as you are after I finish fashion school.
  • @hexmaniacciaran
    I love the section about patch work, those pages reminded me so much of Comme des Garçons and Klimt paintings
  • @afiaoni1375
    ZOE, your channel is the absolute best! Thank you for this series and for your dedicated work. I am going to design along with this series with a video a week starting today! I love this video. I will be prepared next week and excited to watch Part 2 of the design series.
  • @dakotajones6681
    I love that you're inspired by the patterns. They are very graphic, but I also get this vibe, which I enjoy particularly myself, of taking inspiration from the process of the craft aspect of what you're doing. The art about art concept I guess, and purposing something about the process that's typically not presented in the finished product and using it as inspo
