Lili Castro Introduction

Hi everyone!

I am excited to finally be able to share my process of my capstone collection. It is a S/S collection and the working name is Peace of Mind. I find it a bit hard to find clothes that are cute and comfortable so my main focus with this collection is to be able to create something that anyone can wear feeling comfortable and stylish at the same time.

Grace Anderson - Week 1

 

I was very inspired by music for this project, specifically new wave music. Artists and bands such as The Cars, Talking Heads, Depeche Mode, and many others were the largest source of inspiration I found for my garments and I wanted to create a collection that had a similar essence to the genre. I was also very inspired by the silhouettes used by famous designers, especially Thierry Mugler and his couture shows from the 90s. 

I plan on using high-quality fabrics as well as couture elements to create a luxurious line reminiscent of high-fashion designers. 

I have chosen 4 ensembles to create for this collection and hope to start with the hooded cloak next class period.  

 

Inzayne Creations Week 1

 Week 1

Referring back to last week, everyone in class helped me decide on my first garments and what pre-drawn garments would work best for my Punk Reigns line.

I started working on the pantsuit design on my own time. I was struggling with the sleeves because I felt like they were constricting movement too much, especially since the model who will be wearing this design uses a wheelchair. My class mates decided that I should remove the sleeves and make the look sleeveless because that still feels cohesive with the rest of my collection. 

I decided that I will be making the first look on the left, the second look, the fifth look and the seventh look for sure. As for the other looks, I will see if I have the time to complete those. 

Later this week I have another model coming in so I can do a fitting for them. This will be my first time designer for a plus sized person. I will be making the fifth look for that model.
