Alien!

Fancied doing something strange over the weekend, don't really know where the ideas came from but here it is.

Ooh Quilted bodice!

Thought quilting seems quite spacey so I did a quilted bodice with pointed shoulders and a long neck, I like it..

Toile making

For my new project based on the theme of space I've been coming up with a few ideas and churning out a few mock ups along the way..

AlienWear

Been playing some alien inspired games lately and I've been waiting for the time to do some silly designs of aliens playing dress-up. Just thought it would be funny.

DIY hand painted nebula Tshirt

Crappy pic quality but just showing my DIY hand painted nebula tshirt, sectioned it off with masking tape and painted with acrylic and fabric paints.

Bridal/ Evening designs.

Caroline

Another illustrator/photoshop artwork.

Raychel

Seen a photo of a good friend and one of my constant muses and felt the need to do a digital version, I think my aim is for them to be as surreal and unusual as possible, hence the giraffe.

Digital drawing

 Decided to take one of my drawings and scan it into photoshop and play around with textures and patterns.

Beaded Jewellery

Been a little bit bored over the summer with not alot to do so I have started making some beaded bracelets using various techniques.

 

Fashion Artwork

A few more pieces of fashion illustration in the form of artwork, more like conceptual fashion illustration. I wanted both pieces to be very surreal and interesting.

Fashion Illustration Experiments

While I will always remain faithful to my markers, I decided to experiment with other techniques to do fashion illustrations with such as collage and embroidery.

Distorted portraits

In these portraits I distorted them by lengthening the neck and hands and by making the eyes and mouth bigger, they ended up looking like the models for my fashion illustrations.

Cave woman fashion portraits

Here are some pencil drawings I done under my Stone age theme, I wanted to merge fashion illustration and art so I produced pencil drawings which contained my dess and shoe designs.

Skyrim inspired armor

 

To lead on from my mass effect inspired armor, I decided to do an illustration inspired by the daedric armor from Skyrim.

Mass Effect inspired design

 

Alot of my designs are inspired by games I play rather than fashion magazines I read, this one is inspired by some of the armor in Mass Effect.

Early stone-age theme illustrations

Some early design illustations i done for my project based on the Stone Age.

Photoshop Designs

I recently tried out doing some fashion illustrations using photoshop by pasting images over a model, in this case - Lara Stone and then shading it to look fitted, still prefer the markers but I think it works quite well.

Stone-Age Final peice

This is my final peice I designed and made for the theme of "The Stone Age" it features over 650 jewel beetle shells, 1500 crystal gems, 90 seashells and 300 feathers among other creepy materials.

Stone Age Style

 Here is the mood board and final design I produced for my Final major project based on the theme of "The Stone Age"

Distortion Dress

Here is the dress I designed and made under the theme of distortion, this theme was quite conceptual so i was able to go all out and use strange materials such as ink on plastic and clay.

SCI-FI Final Piece

Finally finding the time to put up pictures of my HR Giger inspired Science-Fiction final Piece. Idea here was robotic shapes and colours with fins and quilted sections and some metal embelisment, here it is.

Tria Markers

I have become obsessed with Tria Markers by Letraset. They come especially grouped for disciplines from fashion design to architecture and have a variety of skin tones, brights and blender colours.

Here are some designs that I used the markers on..whoever invented them is a genius.
