Hey guys, it's Jenny, i've written the 200 word interpretation and have added it below, let me know what you think and whether I need to change/add anything as I just did this today (and haven't actually had a conversation with you about who's writing it .... but thought I would try and do one) would be great to get some feedback...
Interpretation of Mini Collection for
Memory is our mental ability to store, retain and recall information; it is a way of holding onto the things you love, the things you are and the things you never want to lose. Traces are how memories are remembered after being forgotten. A trace could be a smell, touch or sight to trigger that long lost memory. Each person’s trace may be like no others.
Working as a team under the name of ‘Contour Couture’ our collaborative idea is to design and create two outfits concentrating on Form as our theme. The presence of layering, molding and shape of fabric has been the highlight of our inspiration, which we interpreted from the Traces brief.
For the Personal Memory outfit we have decided to concentrate on Origami and the way in which the different layers can represent emotion, and each layer takes a deeper look into the memories of that particular person. For the second outfit Collective Memory we have decided to look at embellishment, using objects that are old or new to reflect the best and maybe worst memories for individual people, these will then be used to embellish the jacket where suited to compile a collection of memories.

Hey, I think we just need this for the group so we only need one!
ReplyDeleteAnd i have added a fancy CC onto the business plan (which is just a font downloaded from the internet) but its nothing special... so sara if you wanted to do one anyway it would be helpful as we can use this later on maybe anyway? - Jenny x
