ISHE: TEXTILE REALISATION...

Yesterday, I attended a workshop that was modelling on the stand for the purpose of allowing us Textile designers to understand the way in which we place the print onto the body. With print as a textile element, you have to simplify the shape of the garment to let the print do the work. We worked in pairs and pinned the fabric onto the body, that if we took off we could create a pattern from. Me and my partner started of quite complex and began to simplify the drape as we went along taking a pin out at a time and seeing how it would look. I think overall we produced some really good interesting shapes that I would be happy to create with a print design.
Which one is your favourite?
