Contemporary design

Based on modern architecture and 19th/20th century corsetry, using techniques from corsetry, with shapes and seam lines take from modern architecture.

My final design (under developed).....

Black parts using polyamide with tie silk in the centre front and back panels, corded.  Hood made with sewn on rigilene 

2nd toile:-

The seams on the actual dress are too simple (therefore it is under developed) but now i am in the process of making my actual garment, using black coated cotton. The seams have changed into curvy lines at the back and front, where they meet at the side seams.

Very interesting to see how many different ways it can be worn, and not just a hood. 

P.S ~ wrap up warm and be-careful of the snow!!
