Meeting One- By Jenny

The First Meeting....

We had our first meeting on the 8th of October, Lucy and I (The promoters) discussed with our Designers (Harriet,Ivy,and Sarah) about the project and we came up with a theme which we concluded with the word "Shape" to be our theme "Memories that Shape us".

We also went through what type of designs we liked and colour schemes, we liked the idea of "Origami" which will act as our Personal Memory outfit, the origami would have various layers some deeper and some more shallow which represent looking deep into the person and looking back at their memories.

We also liked the idea of "Embellishment"-this would be the Collective Memory outfit. We had the idea of using items from people in our group that mean something to us?, using items from other people? "Each generation has its own thread of narrative, weaving together collective or personal memories with objects that evoke a particular time, person or place"-From the brief.

The colour palette we discussed was mainly pastel colours mixed with bright, and maybe natural?-This needs to be developed further after some research.

Work to be done-

Lucy and I needed this information so we could start our researching for our mood boards,

we need to complete 4/5 mood boards consisting of-

1) Customer Identity

2) Current/Future Trends for Jackets

3) Current/Future Trends for General Clothing

4) Colour Palette and Fabric

These will be started straight away, as the deadline for this is on Friday 23rd October.
