SHANNON SLATER

I am always inspired by bright colours and flamboyant patterns. This semester I am influenced by organic shapes and nature. The jacket I have designed is a reflection of shape. I wish to use a plumb coloured wool as my main colour in the jacket. The part of the jacket that excites me the most is the bottom half and pockets. The fabrics used to create this shape and silhouette will more than likely be fused with a thick fusing to create a crispness and voluminous outline. I am pretty happy with the way the jacket looks at the moment, but I am excited for the exploration and problem solving process. I want my collection to marry harmoniously with my jacket design. But I still have a lot of work ahead!
