Final Line up!

In the last couple of days we began to develop our final line-up. Colour played a part in this as now we had to create a colour story for our collection from an image. I chose the same image I got my first shape from. I thought the mix of colours had a nice balance and there was a mixture of neutral and brighter colours within the one image.

Colour story



From this colour story I developed my final line-up. I selected six designs that I thought had variety of silhouette, interesting forms and that fullfilled the brief. I was happy with my final line-up.

There was a problem with the type of paper used when photocopying my line-up. The type of markers that I used reacted differently to this type of paper and turned one of the colours green. It was meant to be a browny, mushroomy colour but instead went a green colour. I noted this in my sketchbook however so it was not a problem.

The last thing I needed to do was make a cover for my sketchbook and bind it. binding was easier then I thought I didnt take me long once I got the hang of it.
I got a dark blue colour for my cover as it was one of my colours in my line-up. I also cut my two shapes out of gold paper and stuck them on the cover. gold was also a colour from my line-up. I placed acetate over the cover to protect my sketchbook.

After the two weeks were finished I was sad it was over. I learned alot and it only reinforced more that I know for sure I want to do fashion.
I really enjoyed the two week fashion project and am looking forward to ranking!
