Using the idea of working with typography and looking at the fonts that I would use, I have explored KTZ. KTZ produce masculine womens wear, The top garment that I have chosen is a shirt, but can be worn on a woman, so it fits in with the androgynous theme. The prints on the garments remind me of stencil printing, and have a war like feel to them. The monochrome colour scheme works really well and I would like to try working with this, and experiment with highlights of colour.
This is one of my favourite womens wear garments by KTZ, the busy text and the boldness of it would work well with the typography that I found within the brewery. The shape and structure of the jacket could be worn by either a male or female, it is a very simple shape.

KTZ Mens Wear
The badges on this garment from KTZ remind me of a WW2 uniform, its structure also resembles that of a war uniform. It fit with the androgynous theme as it could be worn by either sex and still look right. The masculine element of this jacket relates really well to the masculinity in the brewery, and the sewn on badges could be the typography within or beer mats.

The SS13 collection from KTZ is very similar to some of the uniform images I found in a catalogue at the brewery. The uniformed look works well, I would like my garment to adapt this very masculine and organised look.
Typography features highly within all the garments I have looked at, I will try experimenting with different fonts and placement of text. I would like to explore layering and ensuring the text has meaning toward it.
