blue dress 1

This is  the stage  before the split peas glued onto  the dress.

line drawings

This is the stage when the line drawing on the paper was compleate.

machined work

This is the stage when all the corners of the line drawing were folded in little sections and machined. Although I was enjoying working on this designe, I was also getting tired and disolusioned because it had taken up so much of my energy and left me drained.

first stage of line drawing

This is the first stage of drawing the lines  seven centimters appart and   on each line  five centimetres on each line. In the end these drawings will have the shape of a rectangles.  After these lines are completed  then they will form abstract.

flounce 1



This is my first flounce which I learnt to create  while researching  the designer Husain Challayan, I was very excited.

sample

This is the sample which I designed and expereimented on to decided whether or not it would be suitable for my final design.

zip

This is the experimenting stage of sewing in the zip following the machined work done on the material.

pleats and paper

these are a mixture of images  on this site for example,  pleats, designs from the paper cutting machine, a design of the garment in its first stage, other papers which I have tried out such as crepe and paloma but were  not suitable for makinging up the garment.

Origami

These are some origami which I had  made up to make a garment from if I had the time, however my time was limited. I still have not given hope because a full garment  made out of these pritty little things would be beautiful.
