Industry Project- Garments

Together with the textile designers of my group, we selected an oilcloth material for the Huysum inspired design to be printed on. I liked that the fabric would have a sensual/ sexy feel via its oily gloss and smooth texture but also felt certain, when worked in the right silhouette, it would be sellable as a s/s, showerproof, raincoat.

We also began looking at William Morris prints, which had the same dated and yet tasteful feel as some of our other reference material and I brought this into my design development also.

I was disappointed with the level of collaboration between myself and the menswear designer of my group, who presented very little to the table and worked at a painstakingly slow pace.

I was proud of my hasty work and my ability to manage the group and having produced three whole Womenswear looks felt I had made a succesful contribution thus far.
