The space essentially has two walls, so, I have decide for one wall, I shall display some prints from BA7, which were my favourite prints, and I shall be making them into summer skirts. I already have the fabric printed for two of them, so will probably have about four skirts overall. The prints were initially made for Premier Vision in Paris, and were the starting point for this final year of work. They are my favourite prints, and I planned to make them into skirts before anyway, so what better reason than for my degree show!
The second wall will have a display of handbags. Origonally, I began this year aiming towards a final product of a handbag, but my mind changed half way through - and I don't really know why!
I've already got a seperate blog displaying handbags that I make and sell quite successfully so it would only make sense!
I have stated in my sketchbooks that the prints I have been doing this project havent stood out for me as much, which is why I have been working with manipulation. As I have developed further, I've began to realise that when the prints are manipulated they work really well as a decorative piece. So I've been trying to add them to skirts as a focus point rather than whole design of the skirt, but have now begun to realise that it works SO much better as a decorative piece on handbags!
The next few weeks I have left, I shall be working to investigate which samples work best together with which prints in order to make three final handbags for the degree show!
