The cloth is folded like an accordion and sandwiched between two pieces of wood or any flat shaped object, which are held in place with string or rubber bands. Result: Evaluation:The shapes prevent the dye from penetrating the fabric they cover and give an endless variety of patterns depending on the fold, binding object and placement of rubber bands.

Method: using small samples of cotton and silk. You will need 3 samples of each. 1. Make up direct dye solution. Submerge samples in dye bath and agitate for 10 minutes. Record results 2. make up acid dye solution. Submerge samples in dye bath and stir and leave for 10 minutes. Remove from dye bath, and allow to cool. Record results. 3. Make up onion skin dye solution. Submerge samples and boil for 10 minutes. Remove from dye bath and allow to cool. Record results. Results: Major Textiles Work Proposal Lotus My designs are both innovative and creative because they draw inspiration from a range of different cultural, historical and contemporary aspects. Through my designs I aim to create a piece, which embodies traditional Japanese dress wear in a modernised way. My designs are unique, highly decorative and include many interesting features, which are mentioned throughout this presentation.

Design Inspiration

Transcript: It creates emotions in which brings forth the courage within an individual to overcome any obstacle-even if it is against good. Focus area and product description I have pieced together faux leatherette, animal leatherette python fabric and concertina knit fabric together in order to find whether or not they contrast with one another. My inspiration goes hand-in-hand with my focus area as it is a costume in which plays a role within a character which is my inspiration. Growing up children are influenced by many characters in fairy tales. Fairy tales capture the hearts of children all over the world. As apart of my costume, there will be a long tale which represents authority as a long tale was once worn my royalty which had the upper-hand in commanding civilians. It will also have a high collar which brings forth the essence of evil. These have a great relevance with one another as they may be used to be apart of a movie which may depict an evil character. My costume will have a bond and relationship with the 1950's. I have evaluated that some features don't work as well as other features on certain points on the body. . My inspiration would have to be the raw and edgy look of the evil characters. It accentuates the bold and daring alter-ego within every individual. . Justification of creative and/or innovative design I have created many experimentations in order to situate the positioning of features on my costume. Textiles and Design Oral Inspiration My focus area on my product is to be apart of a costume. It is a coat in which really depicts the sense of character in which I am trying to bring across to my viewers. Main inspiration . As for colour, there will be a wide contrast of cold and dark colours. My inspiration, as I said, are the evil characters within fairy tale movies. As I am inspired by these characters, I then decided on creating a coat as apart of a costume. A form of entertainment in which will never die. . It conveys the presence of an old school emotion as it should and/or may bring forward old memories of fairy tales which were established within that period of time. Relationship to historical and cultural factors . . Possible experimentation, testing and investigation methods . Relevance to focus area: What relationship goes your inspiration have with your focus area? . It will be used to go along with another costume in which may partner one another in conveying the sense of tone which the piece is trying to bring across. This brings forward the strong presence of evil as my costume is apart of an evil character and also the texture of the costume will have a variety of soft and rough fabrics. Design Inspiration . It will not only have some aspects of the 1950's but also some modern adjustments in order to create a bond between past and present.
