2nd proper week on fashion course!


We had our first proper creative design session on Tuesday 7th October i really enjoyed getting into the designing and creative aspect of creating new images out of other images. although i enjoyed it i did find it quite hard especially when everybody elses seemed to be really good at drawing and getting creative mine seemed rubbish compared to theirs but everybody is different and it just takes time and practice to keep drawing and trying until you get it right.

i decided the image i chose (right) may not have been suitable for the work we were doing in class but i decided to press on with manipulating this image and have learnt from this and not to chose such a complicated image i love this dress but i now don't think it was appropriate for what we were doing in class.
On Friday 10th October i was in the sewing class with Hugo which i loved! i loved getting stuck in to the machines and getting used to them and how thread them up and the different seams you can do the machines and how to do them, this i found really interesting and useful for when i come to make my garments in the future.

proper full week on fashion course!!!

This was my first proper week on the BA fashion course.
Critical studies on monday wasnt what i expected at first and i found it quite hard to grasp the concept on critical studies but i feel it will get easier over the next few weeks when we proprely get into studying it.
tuesday i found really interesting looking at other peoples work they did over the summer and seeing how they described it as each person took a different way at describing their work.
i also loved all the different images/ways to draw and create using different types of media that were shown on the powerpoint presentation.
friday was the best day i have had so far on the course i absouloty loved pattern cutting with andrew once i got the hang of it!
i really enjoyed using all my equipment and seeing the final product of my pattern.
