Love the details used in some garments from Aqua. I love how they use one key feature to make the tailored dress work. I also looked at this shop as part of my research.

Innovative Lapel


I chose to create a heart shape lapel when the jacket is closed. this picture show a sample of my lapel half of the jacket = half of the heart.

Rever and Lapel

This week in tailoring i learnt how to create a traditional lapel and rever. i found this quite difficult and took me a lot of time to get my head around it. However i felt pleased when i had worked it out and was finish to a neat level. After battling through i wasn't happy to hear i had to create and design an innovative lapel. Overall this help me to think about how these lapel were constructed.

Shoulder pads




After learning how to hand sew a shoulder pad i began looking at how shoulder pads can be used in garment. The clothing used to Rhianna and Lady Gaga stood out at me the most. Shoulder pads are used to the extreme in dressing rooms. Few picies of my research work i have drawn over a few images to show how i could use certain bits and design my own version.
