Deconstruction

The Design Process class today was awesome! We were told last week to bring a garment that we didn't want any more or to buy something second hand. I brought this dress:


And today we spent the whole class playing around with it. At first we just used the garment as it was, putting it on a mannequin and not using pins or anything.


After a while we got to use pins to help construct the new designs.


And finally, we could cut things off, cut holes or anything we wanted basically.

All in all, we made 15 different designs, and we only had a couple of minutes to do them (on some, we had less than a minute). We also got to try and experiment with other's garments. I don't think I've ever had a class this fun before ^^

Michelle also did some really nice designs, but I only have pictures of one of them. Originally. her garment was a chinese dress.
