Cassidy Hewgill
From growing up on the shores of Georgian Bay, Cassidy
ventured to the city of London to pursue her love of
designing and creating clothing through Fanshawe’s
fashion design program. After graduating this spring she
will be continuing her education through Fanshawe’s
graduate costume production program. Upon finishing
her studies she hopes to pursue technical design and
pattern drafting in the hopes of ultimately achieving a
product development position.
Nocturnal Synergy was inspired by combining materials
that ordinarily are not used together to create an effect
greater than the effects of their conventional individual
use. Structured denims and denim-like fabrics that
resemble the night-sky are pieced together with soft
chiffon and cotton in purplish/grey moonlight hues to
explore volume and dimension through excessive fabric
use while maintaining wearability through detachable
aspects. Deep blue tonal embroideries in lunar motifs
are detailed on adjustable straps to evoke an effortless
yet sophisticated mysticism.
