Pattern Power is 'a Cultural Festival of Pattern Exploration'. Hosted by
Patternity, this exhibition at the
Londonewcastle Project Space in East London, celebrates 'pattern everywhere'. Creative works on display, include fashion, photography, art and design. Patternity invites everyone to 'delve beneath the surface of pattern' and participate in the exhibition through a series of
events and talks.
'The Duke of Hazard Tape' by
Craig Lawrence caught my eye immediately. Craig Lawrence studied Fashion and Knitwear at Central St Martins and has a reputation for inventive techniques and innovative materials. His work featured in the V&A's Ballgowns Exhibition and
Fashion in Motion series. He will be at the V&A later this month to talk about his work and current projects in an
evening event.

This striking
Holly Fulton Dress from SS13 plays on traditional summer stripes. The dress both 'flatters the wearer and mesmerises the onlooker'. Holly Fulton describes the look as classic with a twist of her favourite op art style.

I was fascinated by the '
Rhythm and Ritual' weaving on display, especially when photographed with the dramatic wall art behind it.

The Patternity ethos of 'celebrating pattern everywhere' encourages and inspires everyone who visits the exhibition to look a little closer at the world around them and delve a little deeper beyond the surface patterns they see everyday. Visit the
