What kind of Fashion might hit the UK in the future???

Seems almost as if British people have a tradition in clothing. During spring/summer, its vest tops, shorts, prints and light weight clothing and during autumn/winter, its cotton or knitted tops, jeans, knee high boots, jackets and not to forget what most girls love.....fur!!!
Who knows what is gonna hit the country in the future? In my opinion, I see something totally different hitting the country. There would be more mixed cultures and more sophisticated designs that could be worn on the street straight from the catwalk. I intend to make this change in the future by combining my culture with that of ours. Our kind of prints are unique and when garments are made using them, they look sophisticated.
Colours can be chosen and so can the prints. Colours for the seasons can be used all the time....the print will always change.....but sophistication will always remain.

My final design



I am still working on my final design and it is pretty much turning out to look the way i expected it to look. I am really proud of myself and all the effort I put into making this.

MY ACHIEVEMENT!!!!




I was taking an evening corsety course and I was thought how to make a corset. I actually made a corset. I find it interesting and relevant in my field of study because I would need to know how to make differnt types of garments if I wish to start my company, which i intend to do really soon. Hear are some photos.

Lady Gaga's 'Wild' sense of Fashion


Lady Gaga is one artist that has the coolest, in my opinion, fashion sense. In her video Bad Romance she is wearing Alexander McQueens designs that were on the catwalk. She is really unique and explores all areas of fashion and it is seen in her music videos. These are the outfits and shoes that appeared in her video.

Alexander McQueen Shoes!!!


I was going through the internet when I came across theses shoes. They are unique and I highly doubt anyone would actually be seen wearing them on the street. I like them because they are unusual and thats what fashion is about......coming up with things no one has ever seen. This has inspired me to make more unusual things
been updating myself on the latest trends. currently, 'underwear as outerwear' has taken the spotlight according to vogue website. I actually like the idea of change. i think it is different and unique and some people actually like showing their underwear so nows their chance. this is the link i read it on. I think its a nice idea!!!
