The Show! The end!







         


finished product

So its all over and the last touches are done.

I looked at different labels, care label and hanger ideas as part of my branding. Thinking about my collections style and theme I looked at keeping a simple and elegant swing ticket that just illustrates the brand and who the collection is for.
                                           
                 

I also looked at a care label as alot of my garments are made from different fabrics or more than one type of fabric combination so i decided on saying that all the garments should be hand washed with care as they are all hand made and this will prolong the life of the garment.

        

The last thing I looked at was a hanger design as although I have decided to sell the garments on Asos Market place if any were to go in the shop the whole outfit should tie in with the branding so I looked at how I could incorporate the glitter theme and make a boring hanger a bit more eye catching.


Please keep an eye out for all my garments on Asos Market place under Creating and Recreating as all profits will go to the Cyrenian Charity!

Thank you!

Mutts Nutts

When hunting for models for the fashion show, a funky mens shirt company called Mutts Nuts contacted me to help out with the cause and donate a few shirts for us to sell or auction off!

After a few emails back and forth we received the shirts and immediately thought they went well with the reused and recycled theme from the different patterns on each individual shirt.



We got given a variety of shirt and decided that we would show them at the end of our fashion show and let the audience see them all before selling them. We thought about styling them very simply with black leggings or bottom halves to not take the attention away from the shirt. As they are mens shirts some were very big so we either focused on them being over sized or tied the ends up making it more of a cropped shirt yet not taking away any attention from the style and pattern.

Cyrenian Fashion Show!

So myself and two other group members have arranged a fashion show. We had alot of stress finding a venue but eventually found one that would let us have a room for free. We just had to pay a bond of £100 for the bar staff which we should get back if enough people come.

The Coventry SQ is where we got our room, we had room to get changed in the stair well and a small stage where we could show designers info ect.
We found a photographer for the night and also got a Dj from one of Coventrys clubs all for free.
