research into shapes looking at cut out shapes from objects, inspiring me to explore shape and form to another level.

Looking in to Designers work like Facchinetti for Valentino, Heather Huey looking at Collodion times. They both used cages as an inspiration, i thought this would help me into research as its a 3design, and has rectangular see through shapes. 
The work of Bridget Riley inspired me as she designs art work relating to shapes here are a few pieces, I have related them to Designers work to create an essence and feel of her work. 




I looked into spiderwebs for more shape and pattern from this I looked into knitwear looking at chunky knit which creates a soft structured look and cut out shapes.


I also looked into gates as this was one of my starting points of my photograph. Gates creates lots of unusual shapes, from this i can create patterns and prints. 

Silhouette designs inspired by photographs

Long building showing narrow line, creates sculptured shapes.
 Inspired by Rectangular shapes creates various angles.
Inspired by Gates, exploring the idea of a cut out shape.
Various shapes of circular lines creating a layered image.

Again a cut out inspired silhouettes creating lines and shapes.
Some more silhouettes exploring shape and form in various ways.

Enclosed City...


First Hand research, City of London. 
These images shows a lot of structure, shape, form and symmetry. From this I am going to look into similar aspects relating to fashion and other forms of structure.

Whats new in Fashion today? What does Fashion mean to you?

Fashion is a term commonly used to describe a style of clothing worn by most of people of a country. A fashion usually remains popular for about 1-3 years and then is replaced by yet another fashion. Even though there are a lot of changes in fashion, most people do not easily except the changes.

To me Fashion is art - especially Haute Couture and Avant Garde. It's amazing to see what they can come up with. Even fall, spring, summer, winter, etc. collections are art - they are the outcome of visions that the designers had.

Fashion is also a form of expression and another way we share being different.
Quite often actually, people tend to judge others on what they have on the outside instead of getting to know and understand the reason why they 'express' themselves in certain ways.

Tell me your views on fashion?
