Fools Gold

I love this new winter trend, GOLD being the statement colour mixed with black and earthy tones in velvet, satin and other rich, opulent fabrics, aswell as metalic foil printing. Together these give a very elegant and striking look with a 'baroque' kind of theme...
Designers that inspired this trend include Balmain, Emilio Pucci and Phillip Lim

I have finished my garment for AD208. I am pleased with the outcome of the dress that I produced. Although the design has changed drastically due to problems with the chiffon fabric, it has turned out better than I expected. I feel the colours work very well together and I like the way the chiffon has been draped in a different way  to what I originally wanted. I feel that my sewing skills have improved during the production of my garment and would like to experiment further with draping in the future and gain an easier technique as I found it quite difficult at times.
