'A Tailored Jacket' (WEEK 6)

For this week I went to a charity shop and brought a tailored jacket, which I then had to deconstruct.

1.I started with this

and after having unpicked my jacket came up with this...

This was my favourite design, integrating the canvas interfacing.

Although I liked elements of my designs, I felt as though there was too much going on and I they would have benefited with larger simpler shaping and draping. As I was ill this week I created these designs at home, and deconstruted the whole jacket. Fellow students however were instruced in class to seperate just the lining from the main body of the jacket. I felt as though their outcomes appeared more complete and the shapes created were solid, interesting and less predictable.









I found Jake Goodens (fellow student)designs to appear simple yet very effective in the silouettes he acheieved and will look to adopt this next week.
