Developing

I have now moved onto the development stage of my minor project, I am experimenting with fabrics and different techniques using leather, lace, plaster, embroidery and print. Its exciting to see my drawings become more interesting through print. I'm aiming to produce a collection of shirts, ties (experimenting with multi directional print) and maybe some samples, but this may change as my plans usually do.

White lace

Just thought I'd share this lovely lace inspiration. I love, love, love this picture. The layers of delicate vintage lace even down tp the little booties.

Elizabeth Williams

Elizabeth Williams vintage styled jewellery is lovely especially the way they are displayed on little boxes or lined paper

Change Again

I finally got my brief finished to a degree, and then my project takes another twisted turn in a roundabout way, but now I am excited about it which is a good thing. I am now working on a mood board to sort out all the ideas that I have floating about in my head.
ideas/inspiration-
the dandy or fop/ Victorian gentlemen
bits of cars and engines
old trinkets
pocket watches
steampunk
flying machines/ trains and trams

watch out for a mood board hopefully this weekend
