Extraterrestrial

I have come to the most fun and anticipated part of college which is designing my own collection without making them come to life (sometimes you just want to create whatever the heck you want without considering how to actually produce the garment. And it's fun). 

This assignment is called Thematic Collection, and we were supposed to be as creative as we can and create our very own mini fashion collection with our own ideas, without being given a theme, which, you know, everyone was waiting for basically all these entire 3 terms of being in this school. For this assignment we were asked to make some sort of report and a sketchbook which has very minor difference. The only difference I know is in the sketchbook, the actual fabric and zippers are attached to the paper, also the rough sketches of the clothes, whereas in the report, everything is scanned and basically a flat and not bulky version of the sketchbook (and by the way not a little amount of money was spent to print 69 pages of art papers, let me tell you). 

I obviously know very little but I have always been fascinated with the galaxy and every matter that has anything to do with it, so I decided to make a collection based on that theme. We had to choose a fabric that matches the theme, at least one fabric treatment (techniques that are used for fabrics such as printing, beading, dyeing, weaving, or anything we want), color chart, etc. I took inspirations from a space suit hence the voluminous silhouette and the placement of the zippers. I also used different shades of orange which was inspired by the eclipse, and obviously I had to include a dark blue with beadings on top to resemble the night sky. 

I uploaded the whole report on my Behance if you'd like to take a look :-)

One more thing to add, I thought it would just be appropriate to include Logic's track as his album kinda match my collection's theme you know? I have been listening to Logic (I don't know what's up with me and rap music lately) and he is officially my spirit animal. Not only because of his music but also because of his way of speaking and basically just the way he sees things in life i guess? I dunno.. 

Anyway. Enjoy!
