A few weeks ago, I was given an amazing and exciting opportunity to enter a competition set by plus size UK clothing retailer, Evans. The task was to design and illustrate 6 pieces that would be put into production if we won. Just as importantly though, we needed to do extensive research into UK and International plus fashion. I looked into blogs and movements throughout social media, which I took a particular interest in. We also had to have a particular muse, as well as inspiration for our designs.
It was a really fun and creative brief, because we could really focus on the creative side of it and push our designs. I submitted a full sketchbook along with boards...they haven't made their decision yet so here are a few of the boards which show a concise overview of the project...
I tried to keep them simple to reflect the inspiration behind the project.
I loved working to this brief and it was really interesting to do the research. It pushed my organisational skills because I have so much work to do with my new innovation project! But I'm really pleased with the outcome.
