Fashion Fabrication Inspiration






This piece by Antonio Berardi has inspired me because he has layered chiffon on chiffon which gives the garment a nice look. Its nice how some sections of the garment are more transparent and some areas are less. I never would have thought of layering chiffon together. This has inspired me to do a reverse applique sample using only chiffon's.











Another piece that I find inspiring is this piece by Christopher Kane. He has used Cutout in a really sophisticated way. The shapes are all sharp. Its so interesting the way he's incorporated cut out work, its almost like a print. Its clever how he was inspired by the life cycle of a flower.





  

This Garment is absolutely beautiful, again we are seeing a chiffon garment on the catwalk. Last week in class we looked at a fabric technique called smocking and this is what Huishan Zhang had done to create this beautiful dress. He has used this technique on chiffon which looks so beautiful as the where the chiffon has gathered is darker. To add even more texture to the dress has has added diamond droplet beads to catch the light.
