Unit X Initial Inspirtation.

Beginning Unit X I decided to continue with my overarching concept 'Time Deception', but for this unit I would like to look at ideas around the words 'Disguised' and 'Unknown'. For this unit I want to push my menswear collection, I am going to achieve this by experimenting with colour and colour proportion.

Throughout my last unit my colour palette was black and navy, I have decided to move this forward by having a strong, bold colour palette consisting of greens, reds and gold tones.

I want these colours to contrast with each other and challenge the perception of menswear. I want to push the boundaries of colour proportion; this will be a key idea for this collection.

My images of the condensation on the windows have been a key starting point to push my work. This bubble effect has inspired me to bring in different textures as I think the tactile feel will work well. 

I have decided to play with contrasting textures and structures. I have started to develop this by drawing contrasting shapes and patterns. I will develop this further when I start to sample and create knitted fabrics. 

Within this unit is am aiming to create an accessory to show how my fabrics would sit on the body and how the techniques would emphasise certain aspects of the male body.
