# Project Description Californian Pools Gabriella Philpott Summary Final work College London College of Fashion Course BA (Hons) Fashion Pattern Cutting Graduation year 2025 Californian Pools is inspired by David Hockney’s Californian Pools paintings. I was inspired by the beautiful colours Hockney uses in his paintings. The collection shows a use of many different weights of fabric from sheer organza to heavy denim. I use layers of fabric to showcase water in some of my garments, whilst other garments show my bikini design inspired by the pool theme. The collection is playful, colourful and fun and shows my love for interesting fabrics and different silhouettes. Final work Look 1 This look features a denim top with button up feature on the back.
