Design Development

As promised, here are some photos from my current project:

Ive put in a collage of some of my research so far, and my initial lineup.

The designs after that are developments of my lineup, where I'm trying to make the garments more wearable and more appealing as I feel this lineup is a little ameteur.

The fabrics are a mixture of textures, opaque and transparent, and its an all grey collection (based on total colour blindness). The shapes and draping are inspired by a distorted photo I took from my everyday life.

(Sorry for the bad lighting, my scanner is broken so I'm having to photograph them in poor lighting)

 Design Development:

Need to pick one outfit to fully make in final fabric, and another outfit to mock up in a toille.

The final outfit will be styled and photographed in 2 different styles.

Hopefully I can do it all!

Photoshoot

This garment was Designed, Created and Photographed in the 1st year of my course. Its not part of the above 'Photography & Styling' shoot. Its based on experimentations with sleeves, shirts, jackets, fastenings etc and is pretty ameture in design, but im still proud of it as it was the 1st thing I'd ever made.
Styled by me, and modelled by Nina Watford.

Still in love with the shoes in this shoot, from BEBE.com

Photography & Styling

I thought I'd include photoshoots of 2 previous garments I have made.


The two shoots are laid out in a magazine layout for a 'photography and styling' project during the 2nd year of my course.


This is a magazine spread of a dress I designed and made for a 'Draping & Contouring' project, and is inspired by the trees themselves, hence the woodland setting.
The dress is made of silk and chiffon, and is modelled by Chloe Henderson.



This next photoshoot is of a jacket I designed and made for a 'Tailoring' project, and is inspired by the concept of androdgyny, and based on a mixture between womens and mens jackets.
The outfit was styled by me, and is modelled by Hannah Munford.
