brother... FUlly-fashioned TG

today was our Term Garment presentation for brother®/fully fashioned class...
here is what i whipped up.

originally part of my fall/capillaris collection.
its a PROTOTYPE...so still in evolution, many changes to be made
its the first time I work with this technique of creating shaped-cutouts with float stitches... greatly inspired by BORA OKSUN/MARK FAST

this one is made out of 100% sheplands wool yarn.
I was hoping to have it shrink A LOT, having enough time to add sleeves, dye the garment and add some texture by weaving novelty slub yarn...
this is it for today- more in the future...
my favorite part- and the only one that was successful= the neckline

its a wrap: whimsicalities!



TODAY was my last fashion art/portfolio class EVER!
woot for that!
here is my "last" collection: spring---> "whimsicalities"

honestly, this is far from anything i would ever present to someone as a defining work, and this is not the development process I believe in. however, FIT wants us all to be robots and be sheep of the same herd- so I try- to survive, make them happy, while being somewhat true to myself...
THERE ARE BIGGER/BETTER things out there!CANT WAIT!







well... the last fashion ART class in my FIT life... i love art... maybe not fashion art
