Design exercise.

Task:

"Research silhouette, collars an cuffs ready for design development exercises in week 3. Pool your research and timed exercises will be given to do in class."

Little bit out of my comfort zone as i tend to work quite slow and concise. All my life from various tutors i have been told to "free up".....hmmm... all well and good but that is like another language to me!!

Nevertheless i persevered, gritted my teeth and cracked on with it. Let my hand to the talking and this is what i came up with... Now remember i am not the "free" type so it is going to take me a while to get into this style.

Here are some of the results of our timed exercises carried out on Friday 26th Feb..
