[Page from sketchbook]
Using the final work on the mannequin, I created a series of collaged sketches. This helped me work out proportions and also the various designs that could be made from this stand work. This was extremely useful as it helped me realise that I liked the stand work jacket to be a long length oversized coat. If I were to make an official garment it would need to be in a high strength fabric too, meaning it could hold its shape. The buttons and details although worked well on a small scale in design would be quite unrealistic on the scale I wanted. However, with the right machine and fabrication either oversized, or undersized buttons would work well. As my toile was a 360* view it meant I could design the garment all ways, changing bits as I desired.
Using old designs and collage, I added details onto my photographs like extra frilling or buttons, this gave new ideas on what embellishments could be added for extra detailing.
The bottom three designs were the basis for my final designs. Instead of drawing a line up, for my final designs I decided to keep in theme with the collage designing and use previous mannequin work and edit it on photoshop to create the look I wanted.
