Accessories Week| Designers

This week was the steeping stone into finally getting practical and creative into the course. I had a fun time this week as it was part of designing which i'm mostly interested in.                                                 At the start of the accessories week we where given the task to look into and update ourself with designers,photographers and stylist, this was a good idea as it helped us look at how the industry is and the different designs and input is required to making NYFW and LFW happen.

What I fell in love with the most about this designers work was the ability to manipulate  different shapes and patterns within the material used to create something so dramatic and head turning. The designs mole  naturally into the figures as if they are part of the skin instead of being a piece of clothing/accessories which I find quite interesting. Looking at this designer It has broadened my how going into the field of working as an accessories designer can expand with more than just  necklaces ,shoes hats et which I thought was mainly part of garment designers responsibility in making with their collection.
