Some Garment research...

I am required to research different garments every week for my module 'Garment Technology'. Within this research, I produce a visual research board and analyse each image. Garments that I have researched this semester include hoods, fitted dresses/bra top dresses, interesting sleeves, rever collars, raglan sleeves, circle, gathered and pleated skirts, casual outerwear and sportswear. Below are a few examples.

Trends project for DESN 2250

The work shown below is research for my project using the programme 'Lectra'. I will mainly be using 'Kaledo print' and 'Kaledo Style'. The aim is to create a theme and colour palette, in order to then create different repeat patterns with different colourways. These will be shown on illustrations after developing silhouettes and garments shapes. Flat drawings of the garments will also be included. This research is development work, leading to a final collection of work.

Autumn/Winter 10/11- Whats in store for Martin Margiela???

I am currently doing a project based on the designer, Martin Margiela. I have thoroughly research his previous collections, background, stores and style. I have researched trends for Autumn Winter 2010/2011 in order to create my own moodboard, picking out key things that Margiela would. I have created a customer board, moodboard and fabric board. This means that I am now up to the part I like best: the designing!! I will update you on this project soon, showing you the designs created from this inspiration. The work above shows Margiela's previous collection, the moodboard and customer board.
