To bring our collection together before we send it down the runway we all agreed that a key piece needs to be incorporated in every outfit.  Therefore we thought of the idea of having each model with some sort of key head piece that all models would wear throughout the show to bring the collection together.
Here are some pictures which inspired us into this idea.

Floral trends

I love how this trend for spring is very experimental and girly

Garment three

This is another garment we started off with origionally. Again we didnt want to just use it as a shirt so we came up with the idea of cutting the sleaves and collar off and using as a skirt. We also had this floral skirt which was also to be combined into making a garment.

For this skirt we came up with the idea to tuck it into the skirt we made out of the blouse. We turned the skirt upside down so the fabric hung downwards, we then cut arm holes down the side and made the front into the V neck design. Below is the final outcome of what our garment would look like after been stitched together.

We turned the curtain fabric into a simple dress by just wrapping the fabric around but doing some fabric manipulation down the right hand side to make the dress more dimensional and interesting. by wrapping it in this way we also created this effect going down the back of the dress which looked really effective.

Here is some curtain fabric we chose to create an outfit from to send down the runway.

Garment one

This was the first idea we tried with this garment. We put it on back to front so the button up detail was turned into a V detail down the back, we also cut off the collar. Because of this the back looked really effective. However, the front was quite plain and boring. We then decided some fabric manipulation was needed so we gathered and scrunched up the top where the collar was which created this effect across the shoulders. We did like this but still agreed the dress was pretty plain, but after trying several other ways of fabric manipulation nothing lay right so we decided against using this garment to go down the run way and looked at our next option.  

This is the first garment we chose, we were instantly attracted to the pattern on the garment it really stands out. When we first looked at it we did picture it as a playsuit with a brown belt around the middle or even a shirt dress with a belt. However, we wanted to find a way of using this creatively not just sticking on.
