This influence is expressed through structured silhouettes, crafted textile techniques and a considered colour palette. Physical garments have been produced, creating two complete menswear outfits, which showcase the redefining of sportswear through introducing a level of detail and craftsmanship that is rarely associated with traditional sportswear.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!--FILE02 IMG--><\/p>\n<div class=\"mediafileviewer mfvimages\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading =\"lazy\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.schoolofdesignleeds.com\/ds26\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Amy-Beckett-FDI-02_Amy-Beckett-scaled.jpg\" width=\"100%\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1707px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1707\/2560;\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"mfv-caption\">A key innovation within this project is the integration of crafted textile techniques into sportswear garments, such as appliqu\u00e9. This process utilised entirely deadstock fabrics, demonstrating how textile innovation can also be sustainable.
