Day 3

I was painfully aware that this day would come, we had to start drawing!!! And not simply drawing anything but actual clothes!!! This is the part that I feared most (and the reason why I will most likely never be a world famous fashion designer...)
Although we would continue with the visual research, we moved on to focus on different elements of the dress we were about to make: details, colour, texture, shape.
Taking the images we had chosen we had to make them into clothes, nothing easier than that!!! I put enormous effort into trying to transform the images of winding dark stairs, hieroglyphs and shells into pieces that could be worn, and all this on a blank sheet of paper. Somewhere very far away in my mind I was beginning to become slightly more aware of the silhouettes, shapes, folds along the body and the way details curve when placed as different part of a dress. But that was very vague and still in my mind, very far away from the sheet of tracing paper in front of me...
