Presenting my philosophy on technology in fashion Anouk wipprecht is a big inspiration to me because of her work with car manufacturers and how she developed the automotive design into techno-garments
Denim Project: Customer Profile.
First Semester Year 2: Customer profiling so finding things that the chosen customer would have in a day to day lifestyle or what they’re like individually…
My customer chosen is very modern rides a motorbike, loves leather and dark denims wears biker jackets and is very empowered and strong. hence why I collaged “leading women’ into the picture to show she’s independent and able to make it by on her own
I chose some places she would shop too. places like diesel and saint Laurent and all saints. Top brands that are very similar in a way of dark washes and the biker/ leather inspiration running through them.
With this customer profiling I found myself wanting to relate and add things in from my personal future reference. I made her to be what I would like to be like.
Denim Project : Final Garment
My Denim Jumpsuit:
Made from Three different coloured Denims for contrast in panelling and white topstitching to add extra detail theres fastenings in different directions. In the picture the poppers are all done up making it whole however there is also a zip going through the waist bans that completely detach and make the garment a two piece to either wear separately or as a whole.
What you can’t see in this picture is that the trousers have a contrast of paneling slightly more blocked than ombre but the inspiration came from grey scaling. I then went on to add rivets in correct places to ensure no wear comes to the garment quickly.
I added inset seams cut away pockets inset pockets and gatherings to the piece to show the skills I have gained. I used curved panels straight panels and harsh cornered seams to make the final piece more exciting.
Initials In Design
Using my initials E , L & R i have produced a few designs. All with functioning zips and pockets. decorative seams and a mixture of three different fabric colours. (black, Calico and black striped calico) i love fitted garments however a little more form to the body is always welcome… as long as its flattering – As seen on my image i have chosen and redrawn my final garment design ready for the creation of flats, cutting pattern and construction.
