I feel like I have reallly flourished in my fashion lessons. I started out haveing an interest for the subject as I feel that fashion is a huge part of our every day lives and I feel I have a very individual style.
Our last project was to create a collection under the title of 'The Elements' and I made 2 dresses for this that turned out well.
This term I am allowed to create a collection of anything I like. The sky is the limit!
and after a lot of brainstorning, I have come up with a collection in which I will knit all the clothing.
It will follow a really grungey theme; messy, dark, creative. It really suits how im feeling at the moment and I think if you link your work with your emotions, your work becomes more your own or your own style and that is exactly what I am trying to find whilst being on this course.
I realised that I have made a lot of dresses in fashion so I thought a change would be nice. So I have planned to make a jumper, a top, leggins, a poncho, a small dress and shorts. And more if I can.
One knitwear designer I have looked at was Mark Fast who's work has really inspired me.
I love the holes down the side of the dress and would love to use this idea in my own designs,
On a less serious note, I looked at Yarn Bombres. The knitting fenattics who cover objecta arouns the cities in knitwear...its like beautiful grafiti.
