Week 6

Patch work

Using a vintage army jacket and retreating it using the silhouette of a chair and placing the remade garment on to the mannequin, to come up with an design that you would not create on a 2d design.

One of the design that i came out with in week 5

by this time, i have started to take the jacket apart and rework it onto a chair. i chose to start draping as it gives out a large amount of detail to a garment.

Great detail on the inside pockets.

What the jacket looked like on the inside before it was taken part.

The jacket was made in the 60s. Has a nice amount of detailed lining inside which gives more fabric to recreate the jacket into something new.
