GROTESQUE JESTER UNI PROJECT

DESIGN BRIEF; CREATE YOUR BRIEF AND MAKE IT CONCEPTAL INSTEAD OF COMMERCIAL. MY INSPIRATION FOR THIS LOOK; IS OLD COURT JESTERS AND CLOWN COSTUMES/PERFORMANCES. MY MUSE WAS A GROTESQUE DANCER VALESKA GERT, WHO CHALLENGED HER SOCIETY AND ALSO WAS THE MOTHER OF THE PUNK SCENE. MY MAIN DRIVE WAS TO FOLLOW MY INUTITION AND LET IT GUIDE ME THROUGH THE PROCESS WHICH IS HOW I ENDED UP WITH CLOWNS AND A GROTESQUE DANCER. I INTRODUCED MYSELF TO PATTERN MAKING ON CLO 3D BASED ON MY INUTIVE DRAWINGS SHAPES, WHICH I THEN DRAPED AND SWED TOGETHER INUTIVELY. I INCORPORATED FABRIC MANIPULATION AND EMBRACED THE WEIRD AND WHACKY SIDE OF GARMENTS AND PERFORMANCES.

FINAL LOOK

PROMOTIONAL VIDEO IS A TRIBUTE/MY INTERPATION OF MY MUSE VALESKA GERT'S OLD GROTESQUE DANCE PERFORMANCES. SHE WAS THE DRIVE BEHIND MY COLLECTION.

AIM AND MUSE BOARD; VALESKA GERT, A GROTESQUE DANCER AND MOTHER OF PUNK FROM 1890S, HER ATTITUDE TOWARDS LIFE WAS A HUGE DRIVING FORCE.

ONE OF MY FINAL PIECES; AN ASYMMETRIC TWIST TOP, PATTERN-MADE AND INTUITIVELY DRAPED.

CLO 3D BOARD. I USED CLO 3D TO TRANSFORM MY INUTIVE SHAPES FROM DRAWING INTO PATTERN PIECES, TO THEN SEW AND DRAPE INUTIVLELY.
