Styling for my collection
i know what shoes i wanted to use in my collection. i think the shoes are perfect for my collection there made to look like sporting trainers, but with heels!! i love them!! ( there like them but in grey and white, plus they have a high heel)
re-thinking finals again....
I stopped and thought about what i was making because i can't keep re-do, times running out. so i thought i'll just scrap the two tops and but baggy white ones and style it up myself, by adding a waitband to them. I have keep the skirts the same, expect the second skirt (which is grey) only has a cut out piece in the back.
I decided to make printed grey gogging bottoms ( which is a white print), another gogging bottoms but white. Also i decided to make two hoodeds, one white and red and the other grey and white.

final line up crit.......
we have a week left to the show and we did a line up off what we got so far.
when i saw the printed skirt i loved it, but when it came to the white and black tops with the pipping i hated it.
i reckon the reason why i didn't like it was because of the fact that when i am stitching the piping to the jerset it stetches, so it loses the squared pattern i wanted to create. To me it just looked wore out before being wore.
So Emily said don't be afraid to get rid of thing if u don't like it. So i scrapped it!!
Another thing was that when i saw the black top on the white printed skirt i think it jus over powered it which i didn't want to happen. It was the same with the black with the grey i reckon its would of dulled out my collect. So the black is out!!

coming up with designs.......
i think im going out my mind with trying to design!
the one thing i have finalise is my fabrics. i have decided to use black, white and grey jersey and red breathable PU cordura for the pipping.
time is running out and i need to start finalising things. So i sketch out my final designs, and im going to start making the next day.

starting toiling.........
i started toiling the cropped top with calico.
When i was making it i forgot a parcific way of sewing the linning to top with out showing any seems. So that is something i need to take in counter when making the proper one.
when i tried it on a manniquinn it fitted nice, but as i put it on a person it was cropped to high and alittle tight around the arms.
so i went back to my pattern and adjusted it 4cm more.

Re-thinking designs.......
Okay so i went back into college asking for everyones opinion,on my colours and designs to finalise.
alot of people said that i should maybe re-think making jump-suits out of lycra with a print on it, because the print will stretch and it may not come out looking right. Also i was told if i wanted to u use lycra on the top which is on one sleeve. i need to beware of the one side falling down.
So now im still on the board on what i want to make as my final. Althought some pieces i definetly want to keep, for example the ball shaped skirt, the gogging bottoms and the tight fitted top with pipping in it.
The one thing that i know i was having was my switch board pattern as a final print. i know i wanted it on the white in the red.
the reason i choose this as my final print was because it was the strongest sample thoughtout my whole sketchbook.
In the textiles room i did do some sames of the print with different colours. The red print came out the strongest, it definetly repersented the tron movies.
