CLASSIC SCI FI 

I  used classic sic fi series to get inspiration from costumes and scenery and stylizing to use in my design work.

Fabric Manipulation 

In the theme of

HOBOS

Aplique

Embroidery 

Reverse Aplique

Experimental shabori techniques.

 Beige and Blue die gave a mucky effect on muslin fabric. Shiny fabric used in suffolk puffs give a touch of glamor to the sample. 

Plaid was a theme that kept popping up in my research so i distressed the seams of muslin fabric to create this effect. 

 

This is a developed sample using pin ticks and jagged tucks overlaying each other randomly. Netted red fabric overlapped and bonderwebbed on top gave an effective grungy look. 

I decided to use patchwork for the final garment front, as it showed a combination of different fabric manipulation techniques and went well with the grungy theme. I love the tassels positioned diagonally across the garment sample, these consist of the tie died cotton with occasional deep red silk ones too, giving a glamorous effect. 

Digital prints  

These were all originally my own organic, floral drawings which have been scanned and transformed using photoshop.

This geometric shape was originally part of a line-drawing of a wilted rose. i added water to let the ink run. i photocopied and cut it out, using a geometric technique to form the image

This speckaldy background was a timed drawing of 2 minutes, i held a fine liner at the tip of the pen and used my opposite hand. 

Retro-futuristic

I attempted to make my own optical illutions out of fabrics
