Bragain Ball Gown

-
For one of my other modulus at university he had to create a bargain ball gown to simulate the different stages of designing and creating garments in the industry. we were given a budget of £10 to create a dress and were told create a dress out of simple materials such as things you would find around the house. Our final outcome for this project was a sweetheart neckline ball gown decorated with doilies and flower petals.This project was a group project and I feel how good the outcome looked is directly linked to how well we worked as a team.

Our team presentation was very successful I feel as a group we worked well to gather the information and impute it into a PowerPoint presentation then present to the group putting across our point that was needed. The part that I played in the presentation was putting together our comparative shop. In our creative exchange week I took a trip to River Island and Next to do a personal comparative shop which I uploaded onto my blog but for the presentation I was asked to put together a comparative shop of one certain item from our range and get similar offerings from our competition to decided on a price point, material and sizing range so I did an online comparative shop of blazers from River islands main competition Next, Zara, Topshop and H&M. I feel that the research that I did for our group presentation was of a good standard and that my presentation was confident. As a whole I feel the Flex PLM group simulation has been a good thing to learn about as it is a...

Trend Hub and WGSN

I have been using the WGSN and the Trend Hub over the last term to help in the collection of images and resources to aid the making of my Trend boards. My experiences with both have varied and I have used these resources in varied amounts over the 12 weeks. Trend Hub I have used the Trend Hub fewer times than I have used WGSN which means that I don’t have as much experience using all the resources that are available to me in the library.   The times I have used the Trend Hub I have tried to collect many different resources not only images from fashion journal and other fashion related resources, I took time to find related images in art and architecture journals and also upholstery colour resources. I did this so that my trend ideas had more influences, so I could show that my trend took from different areas of living not just what people are wearing, I wanted my trend to have more depth so it wasn’t purely routed in clothing.   I feel that I hav...

Over the last term we have been learning how to use InDesign and here are two skills which I felt are helpful to remember when using the adobe application.  the first skill is learning how export your work into a PDF.  you can do this by clicking the File button which will then give a drop down menu from there click Export. if you follow the next steps it shall create a PDF. it is like saving the product without having to save the document. an example of using this would be if you have made changes to the document you were working on but didn't want to keep them but you want to keep a copy you can follow these steps. it is an alternative to packaging the whole document you can just export the document to create a PDF version.  the next skill is learning to use the layers which are on most adobe  applications. to find the layers menu which i have up on this screen grab go to the window menu and click ...
