Looking at images of landscapes and scenery, I discovered close links between draping fabric and some elements in nature. I found water and the way waves create a beautiful clean ripple, to be a starting point for ideas. I also took a look at deserts and how the sand too, has layers of delicate folds and ripples. I used their flowing free-ness and textured folds to create design for my dress. As the main theme for the garments are governed by the draping technique, those primarily became the foundation of my research.
Garment Ideas/Design/Moodboard
During the making of my garment, I came across quite a few hardships, such as measurements and making sure my patterns were cut correctly and fitted properly. I also found it hard to adapt to the newer sewing machines which we had to use.
I feel that I have acquired new skills during this project, however I feel that if I had more time, I would have been able to complete my final design on my planned fabric, rather than just the calico piece and I would improve my design so that I have much more of a stable outcome. Also, if I had been more experienced in this area that would have aided me in completing it a lot quicker.
