Third Year

SDC Competition 

The SDC project was set as a competition which focused heavily on the creative use of colour. I chose to base my theme around the 
childrenswear trend 'animalistic', taking inspiration from nature and animals. As well as looking at colour, we were instructed to think about and 
incorporate an element of social responsibility. I decided to look at perfection and the idea that this portrays instantly recognisable beauty. 
Farmyard animals became the perfect source of inspiration for this. 
Upon first glance they are seen as very mundane, working class creatures, but posses beauty through a range of elements, colour, texture and pattern. 
The basis of the project looked particularly at chickens and the highland cow for shape, colour and texture which could then be translated and used within a childrenswear context.
