Project Title: TBC

Project Aims and Objectives: (Theme: Ultimate Black) For my set project this term I have chosen the theme Ultimate Black. I will be creating designs for 2-piece outfits.  I will be creating 4 2D designs using Photopea to edit, maquette and felt pen and a scanner. This term in comparison with the last term we have to create a 3D piece. I will explore sewing techniques and bleaching techniques. The 3D design will not be made out of sustainable materials nor the 2D designs as this collection will be an affordable one aimed at ages 18-23. This collection will not be sustainable because sustainable materials are expensive and this has to be a cheaper and affordable collection as the ages mentioned above most do not possess much money to afford luxury wear.  The theme of this collection will be Ultimate Black, hence the colour palette will be tones of black but the concept will be the Fallen Angel. I am very passionate with ethereal themes hence creating a grunge ethereal kind of concept (ethereal minimalism) which is the concept of the fallen angel makes me even more passionate.  The approach of this collection will be minimalism, slinky black dresses and two pieces but most will involve graphics which is what I will be exploring most (and how to edit it on the editing software). The 3D outcome will also contain graphics using bleach hence that is something new for me. The 5 piece collection will be casual night wear and will be a Spring/Summer 2021 collection. The designers I will be looking at are Gucci, Alexander McQueen and Nensi Dojaka. For some sketches ideas I will be looking at Ed Hardy's tattoo designs. I have 7 weeks to complete this project and all the process will be documented on my blog and the final outcomes with the explanation of the portfolio on my website 2D outcomes: 2 pieces top and skirt/2 slinky dresses + graphics 3D outcome - top and skirt with graphics and bleached Research: Complex Geometries

Additional documents you may require will be model release forms and risk assessments.  Your tutor will assist you in completing these if the project is agreed.

Taking everything stated above I will begin this project by firstly creating a plan. I am excited to work on a project like this for the second time and even if I am a bit nervous I enjoy challenging myself to bring out an amazing outcome which not only will my tutors be proud of but myself too.
