Whew!
It has been so hectic at college this week! The public holiday on Tuesday made me loose track of the week entirely! I must still post pics of my 5th outfit, it is honestly my absolute favourite!
Anyway, this week we were placed with the task of designing a bride and grooms outfit inspired by a celebrity couple. I quite enjoyed this task as I love designing couture wear and wedding dresses!
I was not particularly inspired by a specific celebrity ciuple, instead by a collaboration of Hollywood couples, I designed for the typical Hollywood wedding.
I wanted to have a more timeless touch combined with a moern edge and so I combined a classic conservative chocker neck style, with elaborate ruffles contrasted with black trimmings.
Chantilly hand-beaded lace is the main fabrication, and is used on both the wedding gown, and the men's suit. I decided to combine a mre classical approach for the male, with a timeless tailcoat jacket with lace motif moulding, collaborated with a modern, simple tapered trouser!

Let me know what you think :)

Hi Dolls...

I'm sooo sorry that i haven't posted in a few weeks! I have been insanely busy with my Internship with the amazing, Jenni Button! Jenni Button is the CEO and Head Designer of the amazing label Philosophy. I have also been working on my collection and I am starting with my 6th outfit tomorrow! (I am still one outfit ahead :)).
Whew, I have a lot of news! My internship was ABSOLUTELY  amazing and I learnt so much! I helped Jenni design for a Walt Disney collection, dealt with a lot of suppliers, and really got intense hands-on experience in the cut-throat retail industry!

I was constantly inspired by Jenni Button, she is the most dedicated, passionate and hard-working lady I have ever had the privelige of meeting! Besides being such an inspiration, Jenni is such an amazing, friendly person with a constant smile on her face! :) She is truely a inspiration to what I hope to achieve one day!

My collection has been running smoothly and I am getting more and more excited as I complete each outfit! I have 3 outfits left to make! The end is near and I am extremely excited for our Graduate Collection Show.

Anyway Here are a few pictures from my internship and a few of my 4th outfit!

I have had the most hectic week ever, don't think I have ever done so much hand-sewing in my life! We are in the last week of our 2nd term, and I am so excited to be starting my internship with Jenni Button next week Monday!

I cannot wait to work with her and learn new, exciting things! I am so privelaged to have gotten this opportunity to work with such a prestigious designer!

I thought I should also update you with a picture of a corset that I am busy with.
It is completely civered in chains but I absolutely love it!
What do you think?

Unfortunately my picture does not want to upload, therefore I will send it later today!

Have a good week all! x

This week we have to design and create 2 story boards that are inspired by a specific illustrator.
My chosen fashion illustrator is Susan Burghart who is a graphic designer, and has designed for many large companies.
I love her fun and whimsical approach to design, as well as the fact that her illustrations are inspired by nature.

What do you think of her illustrations?

Hey fellow fashion lovers!!!
Whew it has been quite a productive week and I have managed to finish one outfit this week which I am very proud of!
It is personally one of my favourites and turned out better than what I thought it actually would! The colour and flow of the fabric absolutely takes my breath away!

Tell me what you think????

Just thought I shall share what my first outfit looks like :)
This look is very grecian-inspired and pays considerable emphasis on detail.
Let me know what you think :)
Getting ready for another hectic week! Starting my second outfit tomorrow :)
Have a fab week fellow fashionista's!

Whew... It has been one HECTIC WEEK!!! I recently finished my first outfit for my collection, sewing continuously with sleepless nights!
I am happy to say that I am really excited with the final result and I will be attatching pictures shortly :)
Today I did a drapery exercise inspired by Cirque du Soleil "Agria" theme. My chosen theme explored a mystical world within the fabrics, embellishments and colours used.
Attatched is a picture of my drapery :)
