follow links on stream on how to translate concept and develop
- Consider all of the
different types of capes and jackets/whatever you want to focus on, the
variation of cut, style, materials can change the purpose of the garment
- where it's worn and how its used. Scale, fit and quality.
E.g leather jacker, bomber, cropped.
How many styles can you extract and what's the effect of that?
E.g biker jacket = harder aesthetic, underground feel.
Select one of the following to develop into your new line: Tailoring and jackets, knitwear and jersey and outerwear.
Blazers, jackets, anorak, cape etc.
Different climates and needs that customer may have?
Put a board together for your
customer, their needs, are they a broad demographic? Think about how you
can communicate to this market? Does your original concept board need
to shift?
Look at style.com for current trends also maybe go to global and select fabric to aid designs?
Begin designing from my
collection and see how I can translate the garments to more of a winter
style. E.g maybe the dress is in wool? Or the skirts definitely could
relate to capes.
Dresses looks kind of kimono like - They're all one piece?
The finishing? The angular dress can translate to a jacket with an angular zip closure and maybe in a felted fabric?
Layers, underwear and outerwear.

Side view and how does the back relate to the front
Quite like the collar on cape #1. The high neck on 2 & 4 and the angular line on 5.
I really like how this cape looks more geometric because of the contrasting fabrics - a good idea to bring into my collection to represent the juxtaposition of Tauranga and Wellington?- http://lamarinieremagazine.com/2010/11/03/tendance-hiver-2011-cape-allure-medievale/
