Dress Process, Photoshoot and Reflection



Originally I was inspired by these two conceptual designers:

I then started to sketch based on my inspiration:

I then went swatching for many different prints in a silk that would flow the way that I wanted the top piece to and found this fabric that I would use for my final:

swatch

 

I created a pattern for the tunic and the straight dress with slits for underneath and created a musin. I altered the straight dress that we made in class to have thinner straps and a higher collar:

IMG_4243 IMG_4241 (my muslin tunic was cut up completely in the end)

I had a lot of corrections to do on my pattern/muslin.
