mid cheshire fashion show 2010.

My new wedges :) topshop - wisteria £65, Frank Usher dress - found in Wilmslow, charity shop £10. Pictures taken in my back garden because im soooo adventurous! ha. edited on photobucket as i am not a good photographer or not a pro user of photoshop, although i should be!

So my dress is very nearly finished for the fashion show on thursday, so far so good, im happy. I have created these boned features using wadding, i think they are very effective and i have added some beading along the edges to make them stand out a little more.

garment progress.

Sorry i've been such a terrible blogger! i now aim to update this a couple of times a week! so the college fashion show is approaching quickly so ill be showing you how my dress is getting on. My dress is based on anorexia so the panels that i have created using 'nude power net' and the strands of beading represent bones, altogether my design includes four different techniques to symbolise bones, including; panels, wadding, embelishment, and the fourth technique I have decided to expose the spine by including an open back piece. Picture three and four are of my sleeves that arent yet connected to me dress, i have created these panels by using a technique called 'reverse applique' and the embelishment is to add effect.
