Hello Second Year Of College

After many weeks of trying to decide a theme for this project,
from the human body to fairytales, I have decided to research into
the 1950's! (where in my opinion, had the ultimate LBD's).
Having flicked through piles and piles of my Vogue and Elle
magazine collections for inspiration, I have managed to create a sketchbook!







Few pages from my sketchbook

During the first few days back at college, we were given
the module guide for this project, now knowing how much work is expected
from us; haute couture boards, pret-a-porter boards, pionner of the LBD boards,
 key trends boards, top 10 black dresses on the high street boards,
theme boards, flat boards, sample boards, 4/5 pages of line-ups, a sketchbook and an evaluation.
On the Monday we quickly flicked through eachothers sketchbooks, having a
look at what everyone had produced over the summer for the project
with alot of work having been done already.
On the Tuesday, we had a discussion on some vintage black dresses dating
from 1890 - 1980, which was very inspiring, especially the 50's dress! We also had a
presentation about black dresses, seeing imagery from a wide time scale.

To do: portfolio boards and more sketchbook work - more atmospheric - link to theme
and add more design work.
