This weeks brief was 30 designs on a Culture. I chose to do 15 on Flamenco dancers (Spanish) and 15 on Africa, however i'm really unhappy with those designs so I dont think ill be putting them up!
I chose to do Flamenco as 'fishtail/mermaid' dresses are very trend at the moment, especially in bridal and I absolutely LOVE them!!!

A - This dress is a laser cut neckline, one sleeved floor length gown. With a white bodice, gradually going into a red skirt, revealing black netting underneath.

B - This is a sleeved dress with knee length tassels from each sleeve. Also with subtle tiering down the skirt.

C - I love this. A fitted sleeved dress with a mesh fishtail skirt and placements of lace on the mesh and up the bodice 'connecting it'. A long train too.

D - A very thin strappy, backless dress with a fitted bodice and tiered skirt in a red and dark red stiff (to hold the ruffles) fabric.

E - Halter neck dress, with a fitted bodice and very full skirt made up of panels that are slightly frayed, squares of fabric.

Bridal collection on Architecture.

The next brief had the theme of Architecture. We had to pick a style of buildings or just one building to build a collection of 20 designs. I chose St. Pauls Cathedral in London, I choose this because of the gorgeous detailing, colour and the many steps, and because of Princess Diana's marriage to Prince Charles. Which I thought was very relevant considering I was doing a bridal collection.

A - Mesh draped across a sweetheart bodice with a tiered skirt inspired by the many steps outside.

B - A short low v - veck bodice. A exaggerated peplum over a wired cage. Inspired by the dome.

C - A strapless, boned tiered dress inspired by the steps.

D - This is my favourite. A strapless coloumn dress(inspired by the coloums!) with a wired cage around the waist to the knee, inspired by the dome.

E - A slight fishtail dress with a mesh shawl with embroidered coloured thread inspired by the colours and detailing on the roof.
