Reflection

I definitely enjoyed planning out my piece and figuring out how everything fit together, as well as having the added challenge of blending extravagant design with sensible design. I wouldn't consider myself much of a clothing designer, but being able to put in the time to investigate how to create higher-end merchandise made me incredibly excited to try to actually create it, as it now suddenly seems attainable. As I couldn't before due to constraints regarding accessibility, I would have liked to experiment with different materials and how they interact with one another, as well as actually creating the pattern needed for this design, as it includes several non-traditional shapes that would need more fine-tuning for it to work. Even so, the knowledge and understanding of working with soft materials that Soft Fabrication gave makes me want to dive right in to experimenting more with this concept, and possibly produce a handful of other designs.
