A Textiles Collaboration: Toast
http://luciewhitmore.blogspot.com/2010/04/toast.html
A collection of research and inspiration for a collaborative design project. Thursday, 8 April 2010. The overall design of the latest Toast catalogue is lovely- it looks like it was shot in an old Indian Palace, all peeling patterned walls and faded coloured tiles. This print is the most interesting in the collection, and it looks like the design was inspired by the site of the shoot! It probably wasn't, but the photos are lovely.).

A collection of research and inspiration for a collaborative design project. Friday, 2 April 2010. I've just finished a 2 week work placement at keelergordon. A fashion textiles studio in east London. It was amazing to see how quickly a working studio produces a collection of fabrics (one week! And also to see the variation of designs being produced. I now have a very short space of time in which to finish my work, and i am starting with re-working my colour palette! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A Textiles Collaboration: Ball Gowns
http://luciewhitmore.blogspot.com/2010/04/ball-gowns.html
A collection of research and inspiration for a collaborative design project. Thursday, 8 April 2010. Today I am working on the 'Ball' chapter. The first place i thought to look for inspiration was the photography of Cecil Beaton. He is famous for his poised and elegant photos of grand occasions. I have always had a great interest in his work as he used to live in my village. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). TheSartorialist.com RSS Feed. Quilts at the V&A.

A collection of research and inspiration for a collaborative design project. Monday, 5 April 2010. Quilts at the V&A. While I was in London I went to see the Quilts exhibition at the V&A. I didn't have a particular interest in the history of Quilts but it was such an interesting collection, I loved reading all the stories behind the creation of the various designs, some of them had amazing histories. Quilts: 1700 - 2010 - Victoria and Albert Museum. I also loved seeing the work of Natasha Kerr.
