Shoes are a girls best friend!

Well iv had to start thinking about how i want to style my models for the final year fashion show! So what iv come up with is to make my own patterned shoes. I really want them to match the patterned fabric that i have made on my garments so iv been hunting all over the shops for shoes i can spray paint! I finally found some. I must admit i did look slightly odd buying 6 pairs of the same shoes and i did get some funny looks but hey ho i still got my bargains look! 


I cant wait until there all painted. Iv practised on a old pair of my own and they look amazing! Just how i wanted them to look! They will look amazing on the catwalk! Look!


I just think there so much fun and match my outfits soooo well! I think ill also add hand made bows onto the heels to in the matching colours of the outfits! I think this will finish them off nicely! 

Ill keep you updated when i finish more!

Colours, Colours Everywhere!

So im well in the swing of cracking on with my final major project at university, seeing bright colours everywhere i look. Iv managed to complete two whole outfits so far! Iv also patterned and twiled all 8 outfits that im hoping to make, one in each colour of the rainbow and one rainbow lingerie set, which took some time to do but there all perfect just sat there waiting to be made.

So iv finished my Rainbow outfit and my yellow outfit, iv also took some photos of them using some professional lights and camera so they look extra special! I LOVE this photo below of my rainbow set as it shows what my collection is all about just in this one image. Also using the professional lighting shows the colours and my own fabric print up extremely well.

Although it look me ages to make and iv seen it every day for about 2 weeks i LOVE this outfit as iv created my own multi coloured fabric print, printed my own elastic, power net, zip, cup pads and boning cover. This outfit is the centre of my collection that i hope gives the wow factor. 

Now on to the colours individually. 

Iv also made and finished my yellow outfit which is a more relaxed look. Iv gone with a soft cup bra and little cheeky shorts, finished off with multi coloured bows.
