2016 › Design › BFA (Fashion) 'Global Citizen' was inspired by Anderson's 13-month international exchange program visiting 14 countries across the world while based in Berlin. Jordan has a keen interest in contemporary art and discovered contemporary painter 'Ian Davenport’ whilst on his travels, He was inspired to create a unique striped print based on the gravity defying drip paintings of Davenport's work, and embarked on a mission to create a united Global citizen flag, Jordan began this creative journey by placing the flags of all the countries he had visited in chronological order. He then used Adobe software to manipulate (stretch) the flags. The creative process developed his own unique flag print. The movie ‘Cool Runnings’ was another strong influence on Jordan's designs as Jordan see’s this film as a perfect representation of 90s oversized sportswear that he finds key to his design aesthetic. Sourcing fabric is a crucial part of Jordan's design process ensuring that each design is matched with a textile that respects the movement, shape and line of the finished garment. The collection features innovative textile development, exploring intricate heat transfer techniques, print development and hi-tech fabric souring. A 3D tactile surface was created by using heat on 3D effect vinyl adhering to the fabric. Additionally, Jordan developed a 3D hi-tech seamless sports rib.
