To create my flat drawing of my final design I used Illustrator. Using this first time was quite tricky at first as it was very different to Photoshop. However, having lectures to teach us how to use it correctly really helped as it made me more confident to use the digital option rather than drawingContinue reading “CAD/FLAT drawing of design”

once finalising my design, I started to create my pattern pieces of the shirt-dress. Whilst making these I came across a few errors which meant I had to change the pieces to fit the design.

After developing my designs and research I started to create my Digital line up. For the line up I wanted to use the same silhouette shirt, whilst tweaking each design so each one had their own individuality. Again, looking at the line up you can see the inspiration from Off-White and the conservative look fromContinue reading “Line up”

For my muse I chose Kendall Jenner as she portrays that streetwear style but also the conservative style which Whistles is more focused on. She is also very popular in theContinue reading “Muse”

Within this project we were put into groups with some of the other Fashion Designers and others from Fashion Marketing.

Once we had finished the process of making the bag, we filmed the final bag and its uses.   Overall, I am very pleased with the outcome of the design as it is what we hoped for. Even though there were some difficulties with the bag, I think it met the targets we wanted. TheContinue reading “Brief 2- Evaluation of bag”

After creating the cardboard version of our bag, we got our fabrics and began the process of making the actual bag. Before making the bag we had to create the screen prints which would be on the main bag to create the ombre, pastel finish. This part was mainly done by Aanya as it wasContinue reading “Brief 2- Making bag”
