Next Style Bureau Project

We had to do some draping for my style bureau class to create new volumes that we will then experiment with on photoshop...but here are some of the original drapes that I liked.

New Sweater

So I started a new sweater pattern because I finally finished the crazy houndstooth and fringe pattern! (Pictures to come soon) So here is my new pattern which I am well on my way now because I am currently spending a relaxing study break with my family in Belgium. It started in drawing class when I was doing a one lined contour drawing and though that the face would make a cool pattern so I drew a contour face in photoshop and began to experiment with different designs. The Photoshop face was the base for the pattern that I then put in Illustrator.

T-shirt Redesign

In my advanced sewing class we have been winding down a bit with all the other classes taking over a bit but we are doing T-shirt re-design and these are which I came up with. They were X-large t-shirts that I cut pieces of and re-attached.

New Puma Ads

So there are these awesome Puma advertisements all over Paris with a pair of high tops and the tag line "Pour les Athletes de La Nuit" or translated to "For Athletes of the Night". There is even a bus stop with an actual shoe in the glass. I think that this tag line and whole ad is so clever.

So here is the finished product of the blue dress. I took the sleeves off and inserted them as panels into the skirt giving it a wide A line shape. I also lowered the neckline and armholes a bit.

Tailoring

So along with the deconstruction project we are supposed to do a tailoring project so I took a gorgeous blue dress and took out the elastic and began experimenting with different drapes.
