Degree Show 2011 - Jayne Black

I would like to fill you in on my past experience before I begin present and future. 


So next up is my work from my final year at GSA.
Again I used my baby sib.







Who is Jayne Black?
Jayne Black is my muse. By looking closely at details around her home including her extravagant collection of jewellery I aimed to capture her colourful style and personality through her unique and natural design ability as way of expressing herself.


Technique:
My collection includes a range of experimental pieces of knit. Uncoventional use of materials such as pvc tubing to distort the fabric silhouette. Experimenting with proportions of block colour and 3D placement create a bold statement.


Type of fabric:
Lycra crontrastedwith 4ply cotton and merino wool combined with pvc tubing and snap bands.
These pieces are designed for one off high fashion pieces for womanswear and aimed towards someone with an extravagant personality who displays a unique interpretation of interesting designer pieces such as Jayne Black.

MUA - Kirsten Hunter
Stylist - SIBA

It is a beauty and fashion shoot based around these Karen Millen a/w 2011 advertisments...

Our turn












I originally purchased this dress for a beautiful wedding cameron.
It is so easy to wear and I am loving short & long dresses at the moment.
The dress and wedges are from Topshop and the flats and Dr Martins (£25 from Tk Maxx. Boom.)

When she was doing the "jumpy" shots it was too hard to do with the wedges so i quickly gave her my shoes and it worked. I love the combination of a classic formal dress with grungy chunky shoes.

Thank you for whipping my ass into gear and getting me started. The location was Glasgow city center. We had to stand at the edge of one of the busiest roads and run when the lights turned to red to get the shot. Lauren is wearing one of my knitted menswear pieces from 3rd year.
