FMP Designs!!

My plans for this project is to make at least 2 outfits. The first outfits being a Shabori and contortion pleat top with a funnel neck collar and a patch pocket, this will be matched up with a pair of box pleat trousers. For the second outfit it will be a halter neck diamond pleated dress.

 


FMP (Final Major Project) Inspiration!!

 
As I knew my skills lay in fabric manipulation I went on a search for books and text to inspire me. After a lot of searching this book by Collette Wolff; "The Art of Fabric Manipulation", gives you techniques and step by step stages on how to manipulate fabric. It also suggests different way in creating a similar effect.




One technique I really liked was "Shibori". This technique particularly stood out to me because of it textured look and 3D element. When I first looked at this technique it reminded me of octopus suckers and then from there I began to think out how you can see manipulations in nature and natural forms.

















Once I had looked at natural form I thought I would try and go the other direction and research man-made objects that have a resemblance to fabric manipulation. Many buildings and structures are made from manipulating the buildings materials.

Image makeover 2:
 
 
This is also another design ideas for a garment/ garments
 but this time  I have designed for twins. The garments 
would come as a matching pair that I would make. This took
 quite a while to get all the shading and everything accurate
so I can have a clearer picture.
 
 
Before:
The original image of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.
 
 
 
 
After:
Where I have flipped it, Shaded, Drawn
and pasted to make it look as realistic as possible.

Image Makeover 1:
 
Look at this, Mila Kunis wearing my Garments that
 I made for my Killerton House project!!!!!!!
 
I wish. I have designed and made this garment for one of
my projects then  I have edited and photoshopped my
dress onto this well known model and actress just to see how my
 garments would look under the lime light and as part of someones actual outfit.
