In todays session at uni, we were asked to bring in whatever we had made from the previous weeks session so we could put up our fashion spaces as they were at this current stage in order for crits to be completed. This did fill me with dread as I still haven’t made anything solid to go in my fashion space and was hesitant to coming in but I’m trying not to let fear stop me from potential progression and I’m so glad I did go in because I was able to finally gather a solid idea of what my fashion space is going to include and look like…

I’ve known from the start I want to explore sculptural clothing and exoskeleton so went into todays session with the mindset of experimenting with materials. I had to go to the uni shop to buy wire so I could start to experiment I just wasn’t sure what I was going to create. I sort of just went with the flow taking some inspiration from my mood board and the more I experimented, the more  I felt confident for the rest of this project.

When we went around and looked at everyone else’s ideas and work I was also left feeling more at ease as I am not the only person who still hadn’t solidified an idea for the final fashion space. It also felt really refreshing to see how different everybody’s ideas are. I also was very grateful for the feedback that I got within my idea once I explained it as I’m now able to look into my theme from another angle I hadn’t thought of before.
