Christian Joy uses her approach to fabrics, clothing and costume in a manner of fun and playfulness. Being well known for her many costumes for Karen O, the lead singer of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, she creates bold, original designs with a high emphasis on the decorative nature of the fabrics. She isn't shy of colour or texture, everything is bright, odd and far from average.
I like her approach and feel her point of view is relevant in my own work. Using fabric as a way of expression and having fun with it, creating worlds within her designs. This is something I wish to pursue in the future and an outlet for design I would like to explore, working with a fashion designer on the constructions of decoration.
