Photoshoot

Backstage at my photoshoot! Yesterday i had a shoot to show off two on my final garments that i made using my prints. The tighter dress is made using neoprene, a fabric i haven't worked with before but it helped make the fit really smooth as its thick and stretchy! The flowy maxi dress is made with crepe de chine, a really summery fabric to go with the summery prints! The model was really awesome and fitted the clothes really well. Final shots will follow shortly!

Arts Thread

I now have an arts thread portfolio! the address is http://www.artsthread.com/p/hannahclements
16 of my final designs are on there so i thought i'd post them on here too!

Boards

So its been over a month sine my last post! Wow my final major project is over now i can't believe it. I never got round to putting a lot of the designs that are in my final line up on here so thought id share my boards of the final outcomes!

These came from creating 3D shapes with my stretched sky. The bottom design is a bit too typical planet scene-ey to match any of my collection. However the first is much more interesting to me with the large in your face circles. Plus i love creating 3D looking designs.

Cloud fun

Alongside my new obsession with buildings and lights I've taken up another strand for my collection - clouds! i like the abstract stretched designs, the soft fuzzy edges contrast well with my clean cut buildings. Whereas the cloud cones have the contrast of soft and sharp all by themselves. As well as looking a bit odd...but in a good way.

Dots

The first of these was a screen print on to some beautiful sand wash silk in a lovely peach. I scanned it and took it into photoshop to produce the other two. The slight creases in the scanned fabric added more of a multicoloured texture to the last two prints.

More Screen Printing

These were all screen printed with an open screen. Again i was experimenting with marbling colours together. I printed on black georgette n experimented with different amounts of ink pulled through the screen (the first picture is of just my screen after a pull through). I like that you can see through the parts that the ink didn't spread to.
