Ive been working on some prints for a trend project, probably should be concentrating on the actual clothing designs, instead of the fabrics, but clearly I can't let it go for now...

Scary face much!?
I managed to actually draw a face!? Miraculous!! Im surprisingly starting to enjoy this whole illustrating lark..even if my first attempt looks quite terrifying, not at all my usual style but I guess that was the point...

Fashion156 debate-Are Fashion Design degrees worth the paper they are printed on?
Its unbelievable to me that its been a good 2 months since i last posted. What with getting back to uni after christmas for a creative pattern cutting project, a trip to paris, delving into trend forecasting and attempting to fit a life in there, its been a busy 2 months
This is a quick post before i get to what I've been doing, but i wanted to post this link to an article on fashion156's daily blog by Alexander Antoniou who is soon to be a fashion design graduate.
Its a great venting article, that is really interesting and defiantly worth a read.
Whether you agree with it or not it defiantly addresses a problem that seems to be more and more significant. At the end of the day i think its completely how you choose your university course. It certainly made me thankful to be in Bath, pushed more and more and focused towards industry expectations. No course is going to be perfect and it would be a huge task to control fashion design courses by a governing body, but maybe one day it will happen. I certainly think that this problem could become less prominent with a rise in tuition fee's making course choice extremely important, however it defiantly is up to the individual to find out everything they can about where they are applying.
Regarding Alexander Antoniou's points about art foundations, i do agree to some extent that colleges need to be brought up to what is expected at university. i defiantly wasn't prepared for my first term here, it was extremely tough and daunting and i spent most days wishing i could go home, but I'm glad i stuck it out, and I'm partly glad it was so hard, because although i didn't have much of a life and was unbelievably stressed, I am no longer in shell shock, i know what working levels could be expected of me in my future and more importantly I'm starting to really enjoy it.
So here it is, defiantly a topic that should be taken notice of:Fashion156 Alexander Antoniou article

So after a month of pattern cutting...
Coming home from uni means finishing the first month of pattern cutting, and this is what i have to show for it...
We got set research work alongside learning the basics of pattern cutting, to design a mini collection, focusing on the skirt. I chose to look at various aspects of the 1920's including soviet costume and then went through several toiles before a few nights of very little sleep to finish everything before the deadline. fortunately no massive disasters and this is how it turned out, still not quite perfect but its close!
These are also a few of my illustrations for the mini collection, I don't confess to be much of an illustrator, but its better than they were a few months ago...hopefully i will get there one day!
