One of a selection of six pieces from Aaron Tubb's 2013 BA (Hons) Fashion Design graduate collection for Spring Summer 2014. This scarf was shown at the graduate fashion show at University of Westminster, Ambika P3, 22 May 2013.
Note
Tubb said the collection was based on the "iconography of Russian war propaganda, which led me to find this group of teenagers in Eastern Europe who had their own blogs and Tumblrs. They were from rather deprived areas, but I found how they were dressing to be really thought-provoking and really beautiful." (Jonathan Beckett, 'Essentials: Aaron Tubb', Hypebeast, 2 May 2014)
Aaron used military uniforms in the Fashion Resource collection as part of his research process - see sketches and design development images. Collection development, drawings and information about Aaron's label Bazar-14 that he launched in 2013, in Object File.
