Step By Step Towards Final Outcome

Final Outcome

In regards to my final outcome I decided to go with design 4 as it shown more structure, and outlined elegance and diversity. I did make small changes as I removed the veiling as I believed the large up scale of the head piece looked beautiful without the ivory veiling. I didn't believe it needed additional touches as the design itself is very cold and sophisticated using the veiling would of taken that away from the overall design. I believe my final outcome followed through my intentions on what I planned to produce. I found it ticked all boxes as it did shown that element of diversity in everyway possible

Design Idea 4
-Layered Technique
-Choice Of Colour
-Combination- Royal Blue
-Calm Cream ,Baby Blue
-Choice Of Fabric- Satin/Organza
-Element of Wiring
-Ivory Veiling
Developing from my first and third designs, it enabled me to be creative and push my fourth design further o it shows elegance and style with a hint of boldness and sophistication. producing this design  I added, elements of wiring to form the fabric so it would be more large scale and shows folds and pleats . when presenting my design adding ivory veiling, covering the eyes to give it the finishing touch

Design Idea 3
-No Layered Technique
-Choice of Fabric - Satin
-Choice of Colour
-Blue
-Calm Cream/Combined
-Ivory Veiling
Element of Wiring
This third design is more structured and is inspired by Stephen Jones. I was more focused on, forming a large upscale headpiece. which would show pattern but elements of fine detail and embroidery stitch, with more of a structural effect. finalizing the overall design with a hint of veiling that shows classiness and flair

Design Idea 2
-No Layer Technique
-Choice Of Colour
-Royal Blue
-White
-Choice Of Fabric- White Organza
My second design is more diverse, doesn't contain any form of structure. it was more about concentrating on the patterns, and forming folds and pleats within the overall design. Reflecting on my artist gathering elements of folds and up scale design , then combined that element with my design.

Design 1
-Layered Technique
-Choice Of Colour
-Royal Blue
-Calm Cream
-Ivory Veiling
-Choice Of Fabrics - Satin/Organza
Reflecting on my fashion research, based on my two designers. I gained inspiration form Philip Treacy, which shows an element of elegance and sophistication. it enabled me to push, my design further by layering fabrics together, incorporating my imagery within the design.

Experimentation- Laser Cut Into Fabric, Layering With Organza & Satin

 

I produced a series of prints showing development, how I want my fabric to be layering. when it comes to producing pleats and folds within my head piece. to develop it further I considered on adding small sized diamonds reflecting on the design of my print. laser cut into my organza showing creativity and effectiveness when both fabrics are layered together.

Layering Fabrics

 

Reflecting on different surfaces and exploring with different techniques. I printed my two digital designs onto crystal white organza, layering them both together. which presented a combination of pattern prints, you were able to see the two designs merged together, but came together as a whole. Printing my design onto a cream satin empowered me to be creative as the overall contrast of the print, fit well in when the overall design were layered together. layering both satin and organza together gave me an idea on which design would work overall in terms of, complimenting the pattern, or there being some form of clash

Gathering Ideas & Working Towards Final Piece

working towards my final piece I plan to contract a form of head piece which is diverse and shows areas of elegance, sophisticated-ness and diversity. building up a mood board of a range of imagery to help bring ideas together on how I would construct it in terms of embellishment, it being more large scale or structured in a certain way. for it to show that the diversity and effectively relate to my theme title.

Merging Colours Together

 

throughout my project I have combined my contextual reference together to show development within my work. although while combining to pieces of work which are the total opposite of each other can either work or clashed. from the two pieces of samples I produced which shown, strong vivid colours along with calm and expressive blues, this development overall clashed. I believe it didn't combine very well or compliment the use of colours. an area to improve on in the further would to focus on developing this further changing the colour plate to more of a pastel plate to relate and merge together with the colour scheme of Kumo Shibori

Digital Desgin- Printed Onto Fabric With Embroidery Stitch

 

from creating a pattern from my laser cutter, cut outs I digitally imported them onto Photoshop. to build upon the design and to produce a series of sample that I would be able to bring forward and develop on. from the use of colour from my chosen artist and the media experimentation I produced and digitally made a series of response showing a variety of diverse pattern which has elements of embroidery stitch, and another which is swarming in patterns linking within the colour scheme. But overall works really well, as you see a glimpse of the originally design within all the others crowded together.
