New Idea!

My tutorial with Sarah and Jo changed my overall concept completely, as stated in the previous post. I have been looking through all collections from 2000 to 2009 and have annotated images, picking out themes, colours and fabrics used. I have presented this information in my sketchbook as shown below:

From this information i have selected certain collections, which have inspired me to create my own outfits. I particularly looked at the manipulation of fabrics and common colours that are used throughout all collections.

I have included colour boards in my sketchbook showing the main colours that Galliano likes to use in his collections. These colours include purple, black, red, grey and pink. I will take these colours into consideration when producing my outfits.

I have also included pages on all of the commonly used fabrics that i have noticed Galliano uses. These fabrics include chiffon, silk, fur, lace, velvet and leather. The fabrics i choose will depend on how i want to use them in my outfits, for example chiffon will be good for draping and lace would be good for making items look more elegant and expensive.

I have also been looking into Diors current collection, and have noticed that Galliano has gone for a lingerie theme, which has inspired me to create a few lingerie looks. I am still going to include aspects of the New Look in my outfits, as i believe that this was an important era in the world of Dior.
