Fashion Project 2 (WEEK5-WEEK8)

WEEK 5

Fabric manipulation and sampling.

during this week, I proceeded with the fabric manipulation and sampling where I was still exploring different ways of needlework. One technique that I tried during week 5 was fabric slashing.

In order to include the aspect of needlework, I worked on some beadings onto the manipulation.

WEEK 6

By the end of week 5, we were already told to start with our initial idea development. Since my manipulation did not have any structure or any 3D effects, I started developing my initials based on the silhouettes I wanted to explore for this particular semester.

I was really interested in exploring menswear, So I eventually started to explore those different types of silhouettes.

INITIALS:

DESIGN DEVELOPMENT.

During the development stage, I introduced white into my color palette, the reason for this was to elevate the green color that I wanted to use on my designs. With a close guidance with my lecturer, we eventually decided on 3 finalized designs.

All 3 of them adapted the same concept of vest and suiting techniques with long flowy pants with detailed work such as pleats, darts and other interesting design lines.

Finalized designs:

WEEK 7

By week 7 i already started working on my look 1. Whilst working, a few changes were made when it comes to the design of the outfit.

WEEK 8:

Week 8 was independent learning week, Since by week 7 I already developed my look 1, I finalized the work with my lecturer and then proceeded to go for fabric shopping.

Since I already finalized by look 1, I eventually proceeded to draft the vest that I was making as my first garment.
