Re-Love: Our Last Project!

Hey its Lexiy,

We have come to the end of our first year of uni and time has flown by! Here are some images of my final project. Millie will add hers shortly! The brief was on ethical fashion; we had to use previously used interior fabrics to create a couture style piece suitable for a spring summer collection. The fabric I chose was rather old fashioned so I wanted to create a garment that was young and would contrast with this. I decided on a play suit as its young, fun and also suitable for the summer. Here you can see my final design along with illustrations for my 5 developed designs and my final design  and photos (taken by Martyn Lyon) of the final garment.

Fashion Wales Live!

A couple of weeks ago we took part in the biggest charity event in South Wales, Fashion Wales Live.

Its a great opportunity for designers, models, musicians and dancers to show their talents! Along with another student on our course and a lovely friend, Helen Rees we put together a collection of six garments that we called "Reflections." The aim of our collection was to show how fashion can be more ethical; to do this we found old clothing items in charity shops and altered and customized them to make them more fashionable and something people would be able to wear, we wanted to create a girly, vintage style! The first images are of our logo and mood boards, and then some pictures of our collection (photographs by Charlotte Hogarth)!!

Styling Shirts

Recently we worked with an up and coming fashion photographer, Martyn Lyon, who is at uni with us, on styling a photo shoot featuring shirts. We worked with 3 shirts and a variety of accessories that linked the looks together. The accessories were our own, and we also did the hair (Millie) and the make-up (Lexiy)

Here are some images of the shoot, outfits modelled by Nadine Jones.We've also modelled and styled for another photo shoot with Martyn, images coming soon!!!!!
