Welcome to my Blog

 Hi my name is SamCheng I come from Hong Kong

I am studying fashion design at DMUIC 

PERSONAL INTRODUCTION

when I was in primary school I find out, I am really interested in drawing and painting also really enjoy playing Lego because using Lego I can create anything I'd like also it's really developing my creative skills.

I find out, I am really interested in fashion design in year nine because I start looking at how people dress up and how people  using dress up to show their own personality also I think clothing is a piece of art, I want to create artwork not only display on the museum also people can wear my artwork around the world.

I HAVE DONE THOSE IN THE PAST AND WAS INSPIRED BYE AND MY FUTURE GOAL

I have designed a logo in 2020 I have inspired by my fluffy rabbit toy because most of my childhood is surrounded by a lot of fluffy toys (rabbits) so a lot of my clothing designs are related to rabbits.

I have produced my own clothing design and I hope one day I can create my own fashion brand in the future


My inspiration as a future Fashion Designer is Coco Chanel as she is the classic icon of chic and elegant design.  I will share tow images the first is classic Coco Chanel and the second is from her Autumn/Winter Collection 2022


Coco Channel 1983-84 Paris


Coco Chanel Autumn/Winter 2022

In the first image from 1983-84, this is a classic Chanel outfit, the jacket has shoulder pads, is blocky and short in line with fashion trends of the 1980s.  The model is wearing a traditional blouse with large black bow to emphasis the neckline and set off the classic chanel jacket.  The skirt is A-Line and figure hugging to emphasis shape and this works well with the short jacket giving the model a sleek outfit for every day wear.  The hat is take on Parisian style with a beret style hat hanging to one side really giving a chic look..  The pearls also are, of course, included as this is emblematic of classic chanel wear. 'Coco Chanel can be summed up in two words: simplicity and elegance' (rédaction, 2021).  This can be clearly seen from this example above and elegant style is something I would like to emulate in my own fashion design work in the future. 

In the second image from 2022, the jacket is an iconic design of Chanel. It uses grey tweed material to give an elegant vibe. The jacket has shoulder pads and slim waist line cutting. The buttons on the jacket are like shiny crystals. There are crystal beads embellished on sleeves and pockets to make the jacket looks exquisite. The capri trousers use lace with a puffy design. The trousers are also embroidered with the same buttons on the jacket. The grey oversized wide brim hat uses tweed material like the jacket. The hat looks casual but very stylish. In the winter 2022 trend, see-through and hard-shoulder design is popular in those outfits have included those elements.

Dr. Heisenberg's Magic Mirror of Uncertainty by Duane Michals

Dr. Heisenberg's Magic Mirror of Uncertainty, photographed for French Vogue in 1998 by Duane Michals. https://maxestrella.com/app/uploads/2020/10/heisenbergentero.jpg French Vogue contacted Michals one day in 1999 to ask if he could illustrate a piece on quantum physics for a special scientific edition of the magazine. Surprisingly, the subject turned out to be one of Michals' focus, as he was able to recite the names of subatomic particles. Michals bought a convex mirror in an antique store in Bath and bought it back to the US. He believed that he can use such a mirror to illustrate Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. He shot a set of six images in which the model was holding the huge mirror and showing different reflections of herself. He named the series of shots Dr Heisenberg’s Magic Mirror of Uncertainty. Different angles cause different changes in the appearance of the model. Even a tiny movement significantly altered how the model looked. Her eyes were sometimes enla...

Peter Pilotto: Fashion Sea Collection Research

Image
I am looking at the Peter Pilotto 2012 spring collection for my fashion project. Peter Pilotto is a brand established in 2007 by Peter Piotto and Christopher  De Vos.  Their Spring 2012 undersea collection was inspired by their trip to Indonesia. Look 1: The outfit shows the theme of the underwater world by using sharp and slim waistline cutting. The fish scale-like pattern makes the model looks like a mermaid. The pencil skirt fits tightly to the body and looks like the tale of a mermaid. The cutting of the outfit looks like a fish and uses colours related to the underwater theme. The outfit looks eye-catching because the colour combination of the blue, purple and white colour gives the fish scales a textured look, which looks like they shimmer in the sun. The whole outfit looks sporty, the sleeveless top and the zipper in the middle of the top make it looks like a swimsuit. The design of the high heels have a dark blue colour scheme and with three crystal in the mi...
