This garments are inspired by birds. I made the one of the top to portray the peacefulness and calmness of a dove. In the second one I did the second one I did the opposite, I wanted to portray the vitality and colorfulness of a peacock. [monica]

For this week's assignment we made outfits for each other. This was a really successful project because of all us were really involved and exited about it.
Embedded in an understanding of culture, history and place, students in this integrative design core will design with the body as their principal site of exploration. Questioning their assumptions of fashion, students will expand their definitions of dress, garment, accessory, costume, and ornament, through critical exercises and projects for the body. Concept-driven design projects will include experimentation and exploration with fabrication, materials, forms, color, and issues of representation, and will be developed through the process of reading, writing, research, and prototyping. Particular emphasis will be placed on innovation definitions and representations of these through the student work.
