looking at Concept from Assignment 1

What was my previous collection about?
my previous concept was about challenging the idea or concept of proper, in many forms


modesty, 
age appropriateness 
fabric choice

gender appropriateness
rules of fashion
challenge the rigidity
correct and polite
girls are pink, boys are blue

i had a heavy emphisise on historic bell silhouettes that were contrasted with incredibly childish modern fabric

Was my message clear?

yes in gernal i think it was, i feel like i could have played with cut aways  and shires like in the button outfit more, and shown a little more of the undergarments, in a bit a more tougne in cheek manner.

I think i would have like to play with undergarment and outer wear like jackets and coats more.


What was important in the last collection?

the fabrics and the features like all the bows, ruffles and accories.

How is my design signature emerging?

bright colors 
young and girlly
playful
bold
fantasy
crafty and DIY

What worked?

the huge contrast between the historic features and the bold fabrics with childish prints with inproper fabrics

What can I edit out?

the long expense gowns and the sharp silosete, to a more practical shape, with garments easyer to wear for every day wear. More unterchangely between garments.
