To start this week off, I have completely changed my mind on my two designs again. This time I am going for a blazer with puffy sleeves, shorts and a trench coat with pleats and long trousers with my corset. Ive also started sketching out some boot designs for my first competition on punk musicContinue reading “WEEK 5”

To start the week off, I wanted to go back to my two research books and develop more designs, samples and photos I’ve been inspired by so I am able to develop my own work and designs. I’ve been struggling with my 2 designs for this term as I’ve felt quite disheartened with it. IContinue reading “WEEK 4”

starting this week off, I have been working on my designs on digital. It has been quite difficult as I feel as though I’m having a “designers block” at the moment. Even though this is the case I have still been trying to power through and amend/add certain things to my designs, whether that isContinue reading “WEEK 3”

During this week I focused on building my research and finishing my corset. With my research I was struggling with some designs, even though I had a line up already, I wanted to further these designs and create something even better. To do this, I had been drawing several ideas and creating a few fabricContinue reading “WEEK 2”

During this week I have been busy creating several designs for a potential corset to start making today. Being back in the studio first time was nerve wracking but exciting.

As it was all about us and what we wanted to do, I furthered my knowledge into my favourite style clothing (street style/conservative style) and got crafty creating several fabric manipulations. Being able toContinue reading “Evaluation of project”

Prepping for my photoshoot consisted of using white and black beds sheets being used for the background/flooring and myself modelling my final pieces. I wanted my photos to be taken outside for the natural lighting and potentially even using the countryside as some of the background as well. I was also inspired by several socialContinue reading “Photoshoot”

Whilst working at home, Ive had the time to develop my skills by creating accessories for my garments and how I would style them. As there is quite a lot of key features on my garments, I didn’t want to create an accessory that distracted the audience from my outfits. However, I did want toContinue reading “Making accessories for Mini Collection”

As my research book has a lot of variated pocket styles, sleeves, cuffs etc I decided to create sample pieces for each topic. First of all, I found several different materials that I was potentially  going to use for my mini collection. I wanted my collection to be black and neutrals. The materials needed toContinue reading “Fabric sample book”
