The first project we did was called Fashion art and culture, I didnt really know what to expect, coming straight from A-levels and not stydying fashion, I was glad that we wernt thrown straight into designing and making garments. it gave me a chance to reseach designers that I hadn't heard about or to go in to depth on the ones I had heard about also different eras in fashion which we then chose the ones we liked and went into more depth on.
Looking at my research leading towards my final piece I feel I could have done better as I should have shown a more step by step approach on how I got there, showing how i have designed it and made it. However I feel my reseach and inspiration from looking in to art movements, artisits etc, has helped me prod
uce a successful exhibition piece.
I looked into 1920's fashion- 'make do and mend', I loved this era but I decided to look into punk style and use this as a base of my final piece.
I choose Paco Rabanne and the Queen of Punk fashion Vivienne Westwood I feel that my work did produce frivolity and a sense of integument which I hoped for at the beginning of the brief. From combining both artists I came up with the idea of a miniture cut out foam board circles and attach them together by staples, in the style of Rabanne and then use inspiration from Westwood on the decoration. In both the artists work they use stars, this is why i chose to have big stars decorated in punk style attached to my final piece. I used different materials on them and put them together from inspiration of 'make do and mend'.
I named my exhibition ''Heavy M
etal'' (10 till 5 in the Paris gallery 'Espace Dali') this was because it linked with both artists, i think even though i tried to make my exhibition piece in prototype and it not working aswell, i think the name still suits because thats what my exhibition would be about.
Im really happy with the outcome and have really enjoyed this project.
