A quick little moodboard to give a feel of whats out there- Girlswear

 

A very quick little mood board I made for my Millie Loves Rosie brief.. to give me a feel of whats already out there... loved doing this research, so many gorgeous bits of embroidery and detail. :-)

1st Girlswear idea for 'Millie Loves Rosie'

 

My first girlswear design for Millie loves Rosies brief... needs a few more tweeks before I send it off. I'm working between lots of designs, and job hunting so busy, busy! Love working on kidswear design and the brief I've been given is so exciting! :-)

See their website here my russian dolls pattern is in the portfollio section, yay!! And heres their blog its got some very inspirational work on it, including the work of 'Belle and Boo,' which is absolutely gorgeous!

A repeat idea.

 A surface pattern idea I was playing around with last night. The stripes on the right hand side could form a pattern to complement the design on the left. Its still work in progress

I love russian dolls!

Really enjoying working on this new pattern. It is a project I am setting myself for my portfollio- I've seen russian dolls everywhere at the moment, they seem to be very much in fashion.

 

A few bits and pieces from this week at Noi Publishing

I created a mood board, for a theme which I would like to explore, and which I hope to develop to become quite an individual theme in some of my designs.

 

Having considered a wide variety of topics that excite me, the idea of using tents and caravans, from a vibrant music festival I enjoyed earlier in the year (in the middle of the yorkshire dales) will form a part of the projects I would like to set myself. I will dip into this project from time to-time. However have recently recieved a new project from Birkett designs, so this will be highest on my list of priorities.
