It's been so long i have not blog!! So decided to start again

from 2.term;



CREATIVE DESING...


We been given a brief before the xmas holiday- my own manifesto-
Also we have to research about sustainable desing,eco fashion,
as a future desinger what we can do to help environment.

It s very exciting but then again it s hard;as we just learning to find our skills, our own style,i am not even sure many of us knows what is MANIFESTO?


That s why we r here...To experiment.
What i decided after a long concidetation:)!!!!

It must be me, what i think, what is my views about life,

that made it much easier, come up with;

And I done my research about eco fashion;as i done that i learnt lots.
I also visited an exhibition in London called Eco Home.

Got some interesting photos from the exhibition

i loved the ideas of recyling items as using rolled papers for this mirror they also used them for vase,photo frame,bowl and old vinyl bookends great ideas!!!!

After all this i started on my board ; FREEDOM remind me chain, cage, feathers so ;

Had so much fun trying to find old rusty chain, :)) I went to Ferndown skip for that then found a very long and heavy chain, needed to cut in pieces:) that was fun too:)))Anyway at the end i got the perfect length i wanted...Used some feathers around the mirror image i think it s right for FREEDOM image...Breaking the chains reaching the freedom ...

This is the final pick

As we picked the design i start researching my fabric, looked all the fabric shops in Bournemouth and some in London but do not wanna rush because got Berlin trip coming up and my short Turkey visit ,i am sure i will see some lovely fabric over there:)))

BERLIN TRIP

This was an amazing trip to history;haven t been to Berlin before and to be honest never interest me .When they say Trip to Fashion Capital :)) first city i thought Milan or Paris but had a great time :))Thanks to Berliner :))Its on the table if you wondering what it is :))

I never got a chance get to know 2. years but this trip we got on very well, the girls are lovely:))

I did not know there was that much history going on in Berlin, obviously knew about The Wall but that's about it, i recommended to everyone.

Trip to Letta University was exciting ; students are so talented at the bottom some pic from their design....

As I hoped i found a lovely fabric for my design in Berlin.Very pleased with that.:))

After Berlin, went too Turkey for few days, and bought more fabric !!!do not know what to do with all that fabric:))

FASHION BUYING AND MERCHANDISING

We have a new unit this term FBM; and I like it already, it s what i would like to do when I finished the uni.work as fashion buyer; but I realised it is not a easy job to get in to and hold on to, but i am hoping with my Turkish back round I will get what I want:)))

LECTRA

An other new unit Lectra, Computer pattern cutting and laying and Kalido-Computer design in Fashion.I really enjoy the classes,needs lots of practising I have to say :)))

This is my proper 2.week at Art University Collage Bournemouth, So far it is amazing.
This was a big decision for myself.Going back to education after long years,but i always had a passion for fashion :))) And decided -gotta do- something, last year joined the short courses to see if it was right thing for me Hi Everyone,
and taking some drawing lessons privately - i have to say my drawings is not very good- but loved what i was doing, seeing the improvement in my drawing,being able to sew a skirt made me believe myself i was on the right pathway.Here i am today writing my first blog what i have done and will.I am very happy and excited to be in Art University.See you all on the following days .... I'll be here....




(This pic.was taken in Turkey-my home-last summer -what a fresh start isn't it...-)

Hi,
I must say i love FDP-Fashion Desing Principles; it is so much fun & creativity together.

Below some of work i done last week.

Theme i choose was handmade; so i used some of the fashion magazine cut outs - Dolce&Gabbana-ribbon detail ,embroidery from this season' collection.I had that handmade lace that i bought last year at Portobello Market also the old cardpostals - with handmade detail on them- and the right hand corner fabric cutout from school.
I decorated the lace with some pearls, and the finishing touch my handmade ribbon on the left corner.
I thought it look very pretty and romantic ...


What do you think????

Hi there,
It has been a very tiring day but so exciting!!!

Lohan Ladieswear...

And The Team!!! Well Done you all!!!

FABRIC SOURCING - LONDON TRIP

It has been a very exciting trip to London's fabric shops; been to lovely fabric shops, seen some beautiful and -expensive- fabrics. And can't wait to visit them again in my own time.

Some of the shop windows was beautifully done!!!

Some of the shop was very helpfull with giving swatches but some i had to buy off.It is understandable was so many of us.

End of the day i had lot of swatches ;

But i don't think it was enough time to do much ;after the fabric shops i been to R.D Franks for some Fashoin Magazine and books - which i would love to have most-but so expensive!!!

It's been a fantastic day out!!!But i am still feeling poorly:(((
