Mark Fast

Mark Fast, a recent Central Saint Martin's grad, creates the sexiest hand-knitted pieces in the world. His constructed knitwear shapes the body like a second skin. Dark sense of humor is clearly expressed through his work, as he got inspired by electrocuted house flies from the Elizabethan period. He then describe his designs as a Pseudo-metallic knitted body armour.
