21st Century Romance Drawing.

Some more drawing from my 21st Century Romance fashion project. (will take better photos when I get to uni on monday)

Manchester Trip.

So in the summer I went to Manchester for a few days and as we were walking around (mostly in the northern quarter) we saw the most amazing pieces of graffiti. The more we looked the more we found so on the Sunday we went out looking for it with our cameras.

Just some of the photos I took it the Northern quarter. It seem like anywhere you looked you would see something else that would catch your eye. Machester is a beautiful city and I fell in love with it though its art and culture.

Drawing Trip.

The other day I went on a drawing trip to the Hancock museum in town and had a fun filled day of drawing. Well walking around with an A2 sketch book made me feel likw everyone was looking at me and it was a little bit hard to draw with nothing to lean on but all in all a good trip. I also took lots of photos to work from on a later date. 

21st Century Romance.

My new project is called 21st century romance (surface design for fashion) and for this I have decided use old/disfigured bones as my focus for my drawing.

This project is surface design for fashion and since I have never done Men's wear I thought I would do men's wear for A/W 2013/14.

My mood board for this project.

Drawing so far...

LEATHER!LEATHER!LEATHER!

SAMPLES!!!

This week its been all about the samples.

Overall I'm very pleased with the way my samples have turned out and because of my sampling I have worked out a way to attache leather to organza fabric without any nasty sewing stitches visible.

Initial Designs

Some initial design ideas that I had for the drass I am going to be making for my final major project, the design has changed some what from these initial designs but the idea behind it are still the same.
