First Briefing With Rebecca.

This week both Rebecca and I met to discuss how I may use my skills to help her with any work required. She also introduced to the work that she has been producing over her time as a Third Year to give me a taste of the direction she was going. Rebecca's collection seems to be heavily inspired by a 60's 'Bohemian' style with elements of both soft, naturalistic and bold, psychedelic themes. I informed her that I believe my skills lie in my drawings and that I was good at gathering information and if she needed any help with Illustrative or Research work then this would be the best for my attributes. Here are a few of Rebeccas Designs:


(Rebecca had this print put on silk which I think is gorgeous.)

Assigned To My Third Year.

As a First year student and having completed the technical requirements of this module I have been assigned to assist a Third year. Today I was introduced to Rebecca Richards who I must be on hand with to help assist her in any of her preparations for her catwalk collection and final pieces. Along with a fellow First year, Jamie Jones, both Jamie and I will cooperate with each other to help Rebecca on her fashion shoot and to preform any tasks given.

I am very excited to start my journey on assisting my Third year through their final months before the Derby Graduate Fashion Show. I will do my best to help ease the process for Rebecca as this will be a very demanding time for her.
