SMART Project

I will be creating a Spring Summer fashion collection for women aged 25 to 30 (millenials)  based on the theme Spiders From Mars.  These will be haute couture designs for the catwalk. The design will incorporate the silver and metallic trend, brands like Fannie Schiavoni and LaQuan Smith included irredescent and metal mesh fabrics in their design. I will be using silver and shiny PVC fabric as well as some iridescent and transparent material in my designs. Designers have been using a lot of shimmering sequins this season as well, I will also try to add more silver sequins into my space age inspired fashion garments. I will produce 4 fashion illustrations by hand drawing these designs then adding these to Photoshop to create a portfolio that incorporates a colour palette, materials and my designs. Also I will create 2 of the pieces as a final garment by using a mannequin, sewing techniques and draping then take picture then adding description of the outfit for example, colour scheme, and material used and upload to portfolio page, by the deadline at the end of this term.

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

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...
