FD Fashion Show, Newcastle College SS11

As if i have just noticed that I never actually published any photographs from my final catwalk show last year, my tea cup inspired collection. So here's a little over view of the garments and accessories that I made :)

p.s. the catwalk photographs were taken by my lovely girlee smiffle :}

My shirt dress - light weight cotton with a dusky pink silk dupion section, edged in cream chiffon with tiny mother of pearl buttons.
This is a close up of the rose which I drew by hand, then had it digitally printed. I then machine embroidered it onto the shirt dress.
Little close up to show chiffon edging and tiny pearly buttons.
This is the back of my dress. I drew the rose then created a repeat print which was then digitally printed onto a light cotton fabric. The dress is again silk dupion and the printed fabric panel is edged with cream chiffon.
My favourite garment!!
These palatso trousers are made from a cream chiffon with a dusky pink silk dupion waist band.
















My dress is made from a dusky pink 
silk dupion and a floral printed section, edged with a cream chiffon. The print was hand drawn by myself and created into a repeat pattern.
















This is just a little boob tube top made from appliqued digitally printed roses to be worn with my trousers.

Happy Halloween!

A few days delayed but I wanted to share my Halloween outfit with you :) Little Dead Riding Hood - The riding hood is a light weight cotton which I designed and made. The gingham top is also cotton with a chunky metal zip up the back (apologies for the poor quality images :})
