pick and mix:I am who I am!

I would like to introduce myself to people through this project because it is interesting to express myself through fashion design and it is hard to let people to understand me through my design.

 

The story of my life is funny, because every people are misunderstanding who I am and they always think about my personality negatively.

 

My first impression to people who meet me at the first time:

I didn’t say it dramatically, but the first time when people meet me, they always think I am a nasty bad behave who loves night life and get drunk whenever I would like to, even think I don’t have time to study, but I got time to go out with a lots of boys.

People think I am a girl who is lofty manner, rude and hard to get along with. Even they think I am a bit*ch!

 

Actually who I am:

Hilarious, I always talk jokes and I love to share my funny stuff to my friends and my sister said I act like a 6 years old naughty child. I love being silly in front of my close friend and my family.

I such lonelier because I never have relationship with anybody, all my life is just stuck with female so I don’t know any boys, so I also very shy to talk to boys because I not usually meet boys around me.

(forever alone face)

 

I am a shopaholic, shopping has been my biggest part of life, I would lose control when I see the word “SALE”, I would turn to a beast and start crapping all the items at once and ran to other level to search the items that I want to buy ( this is madness)

 

My style;

Slim cut tops, crop tops, tight mini skirt/ short, any clothing makes me look funky and sexy are my type of thing. I hate the cuttings which make me look fat and puffy. If you open my closest, you only can find black, wine red and white clothes. But I like few graphic prints on my tops.

Leather jacket is the items that I cannot live without, because it always make me look fit and stylish when I wear it. I also love super detailing clothes, something like Balmain, Versace and Alexsander Wong.

Mash and sponge fabrics are my favorite in this 2 years, so I will used those for my final design!

I love kpop fashion!

Korean pop:

Korean pop music is become famous around the world, however, what I like to focused on is their fashion are so unique and it’s fashion is totally different from western world and Japan. I have searched some kpop band group outfit and here are my commuted about their outfit and fashion:

I received a request on the Kpop Fashion Facebook page for Bomi’s outfits in Mr. Chu. Their looks are all so lovable! I decided to focus on the outfit with the pink dress that Bomi wore in the shot above. I love how each of the girl’s outfit are a little different in these part of the video. Bomi’s stylist did a very nice job with her dress, I love the detailed lace collar and scarf attachment, as well as the almost body-con style accents on the sides of the dress.

 

Siwon and Kyuhyun looked sharp for their SPAO photo shoot for the Korean clothing brand’s Spring/Summer collection last year. I know this collection is not their most recent, but it definitely is one of my favorites SPAO has had. I am excited to shop this store because 1) their clothes are just awesome. Kyuhyun’s polka dot tie here in this picture and thought to myself, “this could be cute on a guy or a girl!” Men can piece it together with dressy-casual pants and jacket like Kyu is wearing here, and sonyeo can wear it with a similar but more feminine horseback-riding type outfit, or a skirt to get the smart and cute private school student look.

G-Dragon performed his last Mnet M! Countdown  promotion performance for his Coup D’ Etat album this month. Among his wintry wear was the striped mohair sweater, you can see below from Saint Laurent. Mohair comes from the luminous, soft coat of the Angora goat. Although the high quality of this Italian-made sweater is appealing, it’s not the most wallet-friendly purchase.

The Kpop Nature+ Concert in Jeju last September was arranged by the IUCN World Conservation Congress. The fashion show for raising appreciation for the earth’s environment. A celebration of the hosting of the Conservation Congress in Jeju, The K-ECO Fashion Concert roused Kpop fans and fashion enthusiasts alike. Renowned designer Lie Sang Bong was the mastermind of the fashion for the evening. The runway wardrobe was crafted with eco-friendly materials and production methods, as were the outfits of the hallyu star performers of the night.

Frank stella

I found the colour of this artist used on his work has a similar style with Takashi, so I am interest to know more about his work.

I actually don’t know about him as much as Takashi, and I am the person who hate rough drawings and I not a fan of college. I also not quite sure what he try to express the meaning or concept from his college or painting piece. However, his works are very interesting to look at and I could spend 15 minutes just looking the detail line sketches and different pieces of drawings from one big college work.

 

The one thing that I like the most about his work is the way he used the colours, very effective and stunning range of colour tone like he focused on using primary colours so that he could match with different pieces of drawings and mix it to produce his outcome.

The other thing I like about his line sketches are structured. I think he is so good at structure the line into a 3D subject. He draws each line drawings look so different to each other.

Therefore, I would like to use he style on my design garment epically the lines sketches.     

 

Frank Stella is an American who born in 1936, he is painter and printmaker and he live in New York until now, his works are minimalism and post-painterly abstraction.

His work also became more three-dimensional to the point where he started producing large, free-standing metal pieces, which, although they are painted upon, might well be considered sculpture.

he use aluminum as the primary support for his paintings. In the 1970s and 1980s progressed, these became more elaborate and exuberant and used Day-Glo colors and scrawled brushstrokes.

 

"The starting point for the art cars was racing livery. In the old days there used to be a tradition of identifying a car with its country by color. Now they get a number and they get advertising. It’s a paint job, one way or another. The idea for mine was that it’s from a drawing on graph paper. The graph paper is what it is, a graph, but when it’s morphed over the car’s forms it becomes interesting, and adapting the drawing to the racing car’s forms is interesting. Theoretically it’s like painting on a shaped canvas."

 

Takashi Murakami

Takashi Murakami:

 

I am a super fans of Takashi because his paintings are too cute and colourful, every time I see his painting, I feel happiness and exciting and I always make a piggy sound because I am obessed with his adorable skulls drawings. I not just love the way he drawing the objects, I think the reason why he become that popular and famous is because he is genius about the social market like in Asia or even the world, his works always got a lot of likes from teenagers, although some of his works are very sexual. However, he tried to transform them into fun and kawaii style. I also obsessed with his color style, he used a lot of vibrant colous and warm tone colours to add more fun on the drawings. I found so many similar style between hiss’s and graiffiti which also used a lots of colours and colourful, funky skulls, strong contrast.  

 

I choose him as my project because his works has a lot of style which really respected my personality, and he is my top favorite artist , his works are really reflected to my life as full of joy and happy. And when I feel sad of stress, I will look up his work to cam down myself and I would feel happy againJ 

Takashi Murakami (村上 隆, , born February 1, 1962) is Japanese artist. He works in fine arts media—such as painting and sculpture. His style is superflat. His work has been noted for its use of color, incorporation of motifs from Japanese traditional and popular culture, flat/glossy surfaces, and content that could be described as “cute,” “psychedelic,” or “satirical”. His most famous recurring motifs are smiling flowers, iconic characters, mushrooms, skulls, Buddhist iconography, and the sexual complexes of otaku culture.

My detail final garment!

 

 

 

The two grament images above are my final design and because I don’t have enough frabics to make the whole garment and I don’t think I could mannage the time to make a real garment before the dealine.

Both are my final design, however, I will use those design to develop more in the future. It was the first time to follow the insturction from the pattern cutting book, so for me, it was the hardest thing that I make today. And I never do the pattern cutting before. Therefore , it was my very good experimences and practice.

Both are most inspired by the french 18^th centry mens outter wear which you can see the curved shaped and tightness cutting which is very fitted to the womens’ body. I love the way I did the dramatic curved at the hip part and at the back.

I think I did the garments very sucessful because I can see the insprasion from my research, the shape that I create on both piece are standout, I believe that both of the design are wearable in public area or event at night. I speically add more detail to focused at the back.

However, I really hope to have more time to let me get the frabic to make a real garment. And also, I would like to add more detail like poket, sleelves and button to improved the outlooking. Adding bows or ribbun would be a good idea too.

Although I hate the long process to just measureing and cutting the pattern of my garment, however, I learned a lot of things like how to measure the pieces and I feel happy when I join all the pieces together.

In the future I would like to learn more about pattern cutting and search more book about it because being a designer should understand the pattern cut , the structre of the clothes.

Macaroni fashion

Macaroni style transform to womenswear:

 

Habit a al francaise was occur in 1770-1780, the informal frock coat were English, but the French people at that times weren’t say it’s British style, so they had change the style little bit such as they add a lots of decoration.

The coat front curved back slightly, so that the side seams previously cut straight, also curved back thereby bringing the hip buttons closer together at the back.

The hip button used the same material as the coat itself which used as decoration at the top of vents.

 

Macaroni style was start from 1764, it was the name of the young men fashion club which composed of all the traveled young men who dress in high fashion with tall, powdered wigs with a chapeau bras on top. The macaroni coat style is tightness and shortness and seemed obscene.

 

I think the Macaroni style was a bit disgusting to put on menswear because it seem very gay to me, especially they also use tightness cutting with lace and flowered decoration around the neck or sleeves.

However, I think it is wonderful to use on womenswear, I would think of pink silk suit, gold sliver embroidery with plain velvet, also I would like to use lace as decoration. The slim cutting coat would be perfect for the trends in this year.

rococo!!!!!!!!!

Rococo:

 

 

At the beginning of the century, Rococo style actually was transform by the Spanish women’s wear called “VERDUGADRococo style actually was transform by the Spanish women’s wear called “VERDUGADO”.

'Portrait of Madame de Pompadour' 1756

Rococo is probably derived from “caille”, int his style, the funnel-shaped “painers” of the Regency developed into dome- shaped hooped petticoat. The women’s costume has a square neckline and “jupe” and open gown. The sleeves were narrow and reached to the elbows and it has lace flounces.

 

Women were still tightly laced into a corset. Their clothes were decorated with silk ribbon and especially of the fake flowers produced in Italy which made women look like gardens. Large bows on the sleeves matched the echelle on the breast. Lace ruffle was worn around the neck and silk shoes or high-heeled slipper on the feet.  Since lace was the most expensive, but the lace was one of the most popular items in women’s wardrobes during the late 17-18^th century.

There’s no coat in that period for ladies, but the ladies wear fur-lined capes, quilted padded skirts during the cold winter months.

 

Outside official events, French women wore dresses which inspire by English fashion, which they worn extremely wide petticoat.
