Bhavini Raindi is a Womenswear Designer, recently graduated from Birmingham City University with a BA degree in Fashion Design.

Bhavini’s graduate collection is inspired by a recent visit to the ‘Ocean Liners’ exhibition at the Victoria and Albert museum. Alongside, inspiration from the film ‘The Great Gatsby’, which takes a further look into the era of the 1920s Flappers and Gangsters.

These subcultures were key in informing the silhouette and bringing in elements of tailoring. The structure that the Ocean Liners held, influenced shape, print and colour. A combination of all these aspects were essential in creating a final collection.
