This dress is something I am most proud of. It took a lot of time to make and was all done from scratch. The making and development process is documented at the start of this blog. Here are some of the final images taken by my lovely friend Calum and modelled by another lovely friend of mine, Rachel :)
A little space to share my fashion work, thoughts and photographs of things I feel should be shared :}

Sketchbook development
This is just a little research on designer Anh Mao, who I am currently working with at college through a work based project. This page needs a little more work.
This is a double page giving a brief history of Haute Couture, which I have highlighted with sketches, flats and close up drawings of the fabric.

This page is part of the Marchesa s/s 2011 collection. I love the laser cut techniques used in some of the garments which adds a modern twist to the lace trend which will be revived this spring/summer.

This is a work in progress page looking into the upcoming trends in spring/summer 2011. I have looked at 'sheer' and 'lace', sketching some closeup details and creating fabric samples using varying shades of organza.

My theme is Swan Lake. I am taking influences from traditional ballet costumes, the natural silhouette of a swan, and the colours and the shapes of water.

This is a small sketch in my note book of a silhouette and make up idea for my collection. I want to create an evening dress that has aspects of a traditional ballet silhouette but with my own modern twist.
