Ian's Ravensbourne Blog: Fashion and Textiles Rotation Day 3

Fashion and Textiles Rotation Day 3

On the last day of the Fashion and Textiles Pathway we had to create a final piece, but we could collaborate with another person. I chose to collaborate with Mike Greenshields. We chose to work on a Waistcoat because it was something different from just dresses and head pieces. The day helped us work out different ways to design and tailor items of clothing (Although it had to be made out of paper) and it was quite fun.

I like how the waistcoat eventually turned out, we had originally planned to do a full suit jacket but realised that the arms were possibly the hardest part of a suit. This was a good experience and if I could go back and do it again I would do it the exact same way because it came out just the way we wanted. I also like that throughout this week, each day has been linked to my first day in the pathway with the use of a paper 'airplane'.

Once we had made the waistcoat, we were asked to do a catwalk. We had originally designed the item for Olivia so we asked her to model it in conjunction with her own piece and they actually worked really well together. Below are my pictures from the catwalk of Olivia and the other students with there items.

Once the catwalk was done we had to take our model and get pictures of them wearing the item on each floor of the building. This was good because we got to capture the item in different lights and atmosphere's.

  1. I really like the concept of your fashion piece, the sharp folds in the paper along with the detailing you added really works!
