Artist Responses

I have started to create pieces for the response of my artist. I have also done some sketches on 1920s style fashion and dresses and then started to think of a colour palette also for the project. I have done a few paintings with acrylic paint which relate to the religious artwork from my research and I have also borrowed a fashion illustration book and traced some of the silhouettes that are in the style of 1920s fashion. I have also started to create some surface patterns from the paintings and drawings.

Since I am doing a tassel dress for my final piece I decided to look on online shopping websites and find some dresses that look similar to the style I am going for. First I looked at Pretty Little Thing and found this. I really like this dress because it layers the tassels which is something that I want to do, however the fit of the dress at the top isn't the same style that I am going for. Also I will change up the colour since I am not going for black. I then found this dress on boohoo and although this is black I really liked the way the top half of the dress looked and shape of the straps, this is a more similar way in which I am intending my dress to go. I like this one more because it follows the shape in which I am going for. I also like how the tassels are layered and this is which I am also aiming for in my work.

feedback

My target audience for this dress is young adults so I asked my sister, aged 19, for feedback on my dress. These are the questions I asked her: How do you feel about the colour pallet of my dress? ( Rate out of 10) "I like the colour of the dress as it matches with the underlay which makes it stand out" 10/10 How do you feel about the style of my dress (1920's flapper) (Rate out of 10) "The style of the dress is really eye catching as it is embellished and has tassels which makes it stand out also" 10/10 How do you feel about the surface pattern on my dress?  (Rate out of 10) "I feel like the surface pattern could of blended into the style of the dress as orange doesn't complement these colours" 6/10 Give an overall rating of the dress out of 10 (why do you give it this?) Overall I give the dress a rating of 9 because I love the way you can style it into a top by wearing it with jeans/pants and it is really eye catching.
