✅ WEEK 3 – DID YOU COVER THESE BASES?
We explored the fun, fearless side of fashion creation this week – make sure you’ve pushed yourself to experiment widely:
- Mark Making: Tried at least 3 different techniques (e.g., ink washes, charcoal, digital tools) to explore textures and patterns for your concept
- Draping: Played with fabric on a dress form or mannequin – tested how different materials fall, fold and create shape
- Mixed Media Collage: Combined diverse elements (photos, fabrics, paper, paint) to visualize your ideas in new ways
- Colour Combinations: Experimented with palettes beyond your first instinct – tested how hues interact and support your theme
- Textile Samples: Created at least 2 small fabric samples (e.g., printing, embroidery, weaving, distressing) to bring your ideas to touchable life
💡 KEY REMINDER-BE BOLD – THERE ARE NO WRONG EXPERIMENTS!
The best designs often come from the most unexpected attempts. We want you to explore lots of options – even the "failed" tests can hold hidden gems that will elevate your final work.
