Spots, Dots, Stripes and Checks

In this project we were in groups of 3 and each of us had to create a garment to show in our uni fashion show, which also worked together as a final look. we could choose to design with either spots, dots or stripes and checks. I chose to use spots. I began with collaging various circles of different patterns and colours from textiles

I then edited the individual spots, by increasing the saturation and contrast, creating a sharper and more graphic spot.

I chose the bottom right spot to use predominantly in my final design.

Once the spot was chosen, I decided I would make a circle skirt as my garment, as I felt the shape would fit my design, I also chose to use thin neoprene as my base fabric because I felt that the garment would need to be slightly more structured.

Below is some mockup visualisations of my print placement.

I decided to use the top right placement as I felt that it would bring some  gravity to the garment,
