Ann-Sofie Johansson:

H&M’s head of design, Ann-Sofie Johansson confirmed that the brand is not limiting itself to organic cotton. The fashion brand has included organic linen, recycled polyester and Tencel among the materials used in its new eco-friendly collection. Johansson revealed that sustainable fabrics provide immense possibilities for creating fashion statements in a greener way.I like her work because her "green collection line" is environmental friendly which is rarely and precious in fashion design. Most of her clothes made in organic cotton . As for me, her work influences me because i always consider environmental problems as big issues . Therefore, i am going to use her big idea of " environmental friendly " as my idea in final project. Here i have some questions about her work. For example, does the color of clothes change after washing as they are made of organic cotton? will the clothes be very expensive as they are made of organic stuff? Anyway, i love her work and will expand her idea into my final project.

  1. Its interesting how your artist seems to be doing mainly work with retouching. He seems very skilled in making the person looking at the picture want to be like the person in the photo. The retouching seems very advanced and also playing with lighting. How will this connect to your midterm? Also, i LOVE H&M:]
