Feedback

Feedback was good so hopefully a good mark. Angie said i had a good shop and trend report. I Just need more samples through out my work as part of the design process. Which i knew i needed but was hard to go back and do this so will have to consider more for the next module. Furthermore i could try different media so you can see more rendering.

Final Line Up

Today i have finially finished my finial line up. It took a few times to get there but finially got my collection and i love it. Just wish i could go on to make it now i have got to this point. Just need to go back and tidy up and my work so i can hand it in on tues, i feel i have done ok and im happy with my work.

Development

From my sheets im closely reaching my finial line up. Which is my final collection. From my developed ideas i have design many garments for each part of a collections. eg skirts, tops, jackets etc. I am now at the point where i can play around with these to reach the right outfit. This is quite fun but i keep forget to look more closely at the garments i am drawing that i have included everything like the darts for example.

This week i have been carrying on with my research for temple newsman i have look at different parts of the house but seem to foucus more on the dolls house and the things with in it. From these sheets i have began to pull out shapes i could develop and use to create garment ideas. From this i have tried to pull in my research from my trend board and my research from my chosen market. I am now designing for Topshop for Spring/Summer 2010.

Research

This module is about the trends of the summer and we have to design a collection for a shop for spring summer 2010. I've started my shop report which quite enjoying gives me a chance to look more closely at the garments of certain markets and how they have been constructed. Also interesting to see the differences throughout the market levels. Ive created my shop report in style of a sketch book so i can quickly get my sketchs down and is more fun to read. We also have to do a trend report by look at four trends that will apear this summer of 2010. This consists more of pictures key words and colour palettes.

photography elective

This week Ive been doing my photography elective. We started by learning all the different aspects of the camera and how we can change the settings and lightnings to capture the image we wanted. I really enjoyed this and learnt alot i feel i could use for my fashion work. From what we had learnt we had to create a portfolio. I looked at what reflections of water can show. I took many images using the settings i had learnt and showed how i could apply these settings to different scenes. After i had played around i chose my six favorite images and development them on photoshop to create a more profession image. Finally i had them printed and mounted onto different card to create a better finish.

Temple Newsam House

Today we went to visit Temple Newsam in Leeds. It is a great historic house in England. We had to go around it and sketch and take images of what interest us. This is the basics of are research for the next module so that we can pull out what interest us and develop further, so create ideas for a collection.
