Observational Studies- I have created continuous line drawings using ink which are inspired by my theme of cityscapes which have a mix of block colours and different lines.

Observational Studies- I used ink to create these lines which are inspired by my theme of cityscapes. I also then used tape to again create lines to represent the skyline. These techniques created different thicknesses of lines and direction.

Tailoring Moodboard- This is my moodboard of inspiration for my theme of cityscapes. Stephane Rolland was one of my biggest inspirations because I love how he manipulates the fabric and makes a big statement on the runway. I was really interested in the detail of buildings in the city, especially the windows.

Tailoring Sketchbook Pages-I was inspired by designers such as Stephane Rolland and Calvin Klein and cities such as New York and London. I then created a customer profile so that I was aware of my customers’ needs which is important so that my design sells. I did research on different collars and made some designs out of paper so that I could get ideas of what I think would be best for my design. I then created pages of observational drawings which were created using ink to make different thicknesses of lines to create a high level of detail.

Tailoring Sketchbook pages- This is artist research of textile designers that I looked at for inspiration of my theme of cityscapes. I created samples in the style of each of the designers, using techniques such as continous line embroidery, applique, and reverse applique.

Tailoring Designs- These are my final designs of suits with surface pattern print.

Tailoring Print Development- I looked at different colours and positions of print to help me decide on my final design which is shown to the far right of the page. I used photoshop to position my print design onto my collar and lapel which helped me to review and refine my design.
