Menswear Design Work

21ST Century Romance A/W 2013 Menswear

These are just a few shots of my initial design work.

 Using wadding to create a 3D ribcage effect on a vest/jumper. This was done half scale just to get an idea of how it would work out, i think the sample is very effective and would love to try this out full scale.

Group Work.

Not my favourite but this time i was put into a group with people with very similar tastes as me.
Its not usually this that bugs me its the co operation with people and organisation, i usually end up having to organise the group, but this time it was much simpler as the organising was spread out amongst three of us.

 This was the group moodboard. Included fabric swatches and texture ideas.

A shot from the group presentation and our display of boards, these included an illustration including a full outfit and our range plan.
We also used objects to portray the mood of our theme, these were fur a rose and an encrusted skull.
We used black finger knitting to suspend out boards from the ceiling.
