Hello! I've bee a good girl lately and I've been making time for some posting :), I'm super proud of my self and I hope you are too. First, I'll tell you what my project was about: I had to make a collection and two mood boards to present it. It's not at easy as it sounds.. First you have to choose a season (in this case, summer/spring 2012), the trends predicted for that season, your inspiration (mine was late 80's and early 90's, you know that carefree people, rock n' rollers but boho's and hippies too..) and then a brand or designer you wanted to design too (I chose Urban Outfitters); all these goes in a binder or notebook called scrap book and then you had to do the same thing but in a mood board (bigger scale). My first mood board includes the four mentioned in sort of a collage (the one full of pictures). It must include everything that inspires you, so it can actually contain anything.. my favorite pictures are the black and white big ones and my dream catcher! Oh God you can not imagine how much I adore it! (well maybe you can because there are a thousand pictures about it).
After doing the "theoretic" part of the project you had to start designing basing on everything you had investigated and your inspiration and trends. I loved how my flat designs looked before being painted because I simply suck at that.. but painting was not optional so :(. You had to make a fabric and a color palette including some fabrics you plan on using and your collection color shades.
I included pictures of how my work desk looked at like 11 pm one day before (oops), some of my mood boards and collection and finally what I wore that day. I feel the need to add that those are on my top 3 fav shoes <3333! They are such a babies!
Hope you like it because I had so much fun doing that project. I'll try to post anytime soon pictures of my scrap book and tell you more about it.
TGIF! Tonight's gonna be awesome, I can't wait. I have go get my hair done right now or I'll be all stressed out as always!
Goodbye for now and I have a nice friday!
xx,
