Final Flats

After doing my original flats and speaking to Teresa in my tutorial I realised something had to change. The flats were too busy and the placement of the prints weren't working very well. After doing some more research on designer T-shirts but also looking at Vanesa Krongold's collections I decided to bring colour blocking into my work. I started to play around with colour blocking different sections of the T-shirts, I really liked the idea and I think the flats look good. I tried hard to colour balance the board so you could see the whole palette.

Printed Flats

I have placed my prints onto my flats. I think some of these work better than others i.e. bottom right. I think this is due to the scale and placement of the print. After putting these flats together , I feel the prints are a bit too busy and vibrant as a collection. I am going to work on some new prints, toning down the colours.

Flats

I have been drawing flats to place my prints on. I'm producing a range of high end silk designer t-shirts, I want the flats to show the quality of the fabric.

Design Boards.

 

These are my three final designs boards. I have chosen my 6 favourite characters and placed my favourite print which have been edited in illustrator onto the garments. I have then drawn the garments as flats so the audience understands their shape.
