Sketchbook Work: AS Vintage Project, skirt and corset designs
These sketches reflect my ideas for what I wish my corset and skirt to look like. My aim is to produce a corset and skirt inspired by my research into vintage and the Horrockses exhibition.
I intend to use a range of techniques. As shown by this drawing I intend to use cutwork on the panels at the front of the corset. On the attatching panels I intend on using a leaf design inspired by the work of Alastair Morton for Horrockses. However I shall put my own designs from my drawing work inside the leaves. The next panel I intend to use machine embroidery using design from my drawings of a milk jug with a vintage design. On the next panel I intend to use diagonal striped like those used in the Horrockses dresses, intended to make the wearer to look taller and thinner. Overall I want my corset to have a symmetrical design with each matching panel having the same design on it. I also intend to make the corset and skirt out of recycled material in the spirit of make do and mend.
I intend the skirt to have a floral vintage design on it like those seen frequenty during the 1940's and 50's. I am taking my main inspiration from the Horrockses exhibition.
