During the last 2 weeks we have had 3 deadlines to prepare for. The first was our final garment hand in. For this I had to hand in two pairs of trousers, and a kimono coat. I was really pleased with how my final garments turned out, and I even managed to sew in our brand labels into my garments before the deadline, which really finished off the look.
Our second deadline was our presentation to the design team at Next. For this we had to present our portfolio pages on a power point, alongside our promotional video and look-book. We also had our final garments displayed on models for the design team and our tutors to look at. We were really pleased with the feedback we got from our presentation- Tom, the head designer for Next menswear even said he wanted to change his whole wardrobe to our collection! We were also praised on the strength of our branding, and professionalism of our look-book. Tomorrow is our 3rd and final hand in. We must hand in our portfolio, market research, look-book, sketchbook, final patterns and final garments. This hand-in has been particularly challenging because it is only 3 days after our presentation, therefore everything that was not necessary for the presentation (sketchbook, market research) had been naively neglected- not something we would do again! However, the sketchbook is taking shape and the market research is nearly finished, so we are feeling confident and positive for our final hand-in tomorrow. Thanks for reading and take a look at our photo-shoot pictures, which we are all really proud of. Issy.
