ITS ARCADEMY, CLOSER AND CLOSER
Eun Young Choi, South Korea
Finalist, ITS 2006 – Fashion
What’s the real difference between being beautiful or ugly? What does it really mean? Eun tells us about a world full of people who mask their rough and ugly mind by covering it with their good looks. What about people who look ugly and disgusting? We can only consider them bad because of their looks?

ALREADY FEELS LIKE ITS ARCADEMY
Jasper Sinchai Chadprajong, Thailand/UK
Finalist, ITS 2009 – Fashion
The first time the collection arrived but… not the finalist! Jasper was stuck in London due to VISA problems and sent a colleague on his behalf! A collection about broken love: all garments are connected, a metaphorical “umbilical chord” with his ex boyfriend.

FULL THROTTLE ON ITS ARCADEMY
Adrian Sommerauer, Germany

Twice a finalist, in quite a unique way. First as a graduate from a german school (HAW Hamburg), then following a masters course in UK (Royal College of Art, London). Kenzo, Marras and now Dorothee Schumacher (resp. of wovens).

EVA & ADELE
What more is there to say? That time we had Eva & Adele in the ITS Creative Archive. As close as it gets to having “visitors from another planet” (as they defined themselves) land at ITS.

ITS ARCADEMY,
NOT FAR AT ALL
Sophie Bille Brahe, Denmark
Finalist, ITS 2009 – Accessories
At ITS she presented rings like skylines. Very sweet soul, beautiful smile. Renown eponymous brand! Always designs with starts and skies in her head (great astronomer in her family!).

DIRECTION ITS ARCADEMY
Weronika Lesniak, UK
Finalist, ITS 2009 – Accessories
Do corporations constitute armies? Has the banking system replaced the feudal system? Working on the assumption that bankers are the new knights in shining armour, Weronika picked the 4 biggest banks in the UK and sent them to war with the proper accessories.

A letter from Romance was Born
Thank you message from Anna Louise Plunkett & Luke John Sales, August 2005. First Australians we ever had. Launched “Romance Was Born” at ITS, it became huge in Australia. They’ve dressed Cate Blanchett, Cindy Lauper, Lili Allen, Miley Cyrus… Jaw-droppingly outlandish.
