Design Collaboration

I collaborated my designs with Lily Stodel and Chealsie Williams. Both Chealsie and Lily had incorporated layering into their designs and Chealsie and me had both focussed on subtraction cutting. Lily’s designs involved a lot of transparency and bra like tops. We decided to take surrealism from Chealsie work and the layering from both lily and Chealsie. We will use subtraction cutting to incorporate the twisting of fabric to fit into my concept and have a structured bra like bodice with a layered vest underneath which has come from lily’s work. When we first started designing we thought about having the pillow case made of two fabrics and then a third would be sewn in the shape of an animal’s head as a patch, but after making a toile and drawing this on we discovered that it would not create an ascetically pleasing or interesting shape when cut. So we have chosen to go with this design...
