Imperfection Is Contagious

This is the evening wear garment I had been working on. Inspired by barred owl.

My stupid Photoshop software isn't working. I would've posted more pictures otherwise. Oh well, I can always edit the post later. Keep reading. :)

Eruption Of Lights

This is the FIRST GARMENT I designed and constructed. My theme was 'Speed Of Sound', the song by Coldplay.
Sorry about the poor quality of the pictures. I clicked them myself with a Nikon DSLR and it was the first time I ever used one.

The Owl Effect

I have been working on my - first ever - Evening wear garment this semester and my inspiration is the Barred Owl. What fascinated me the most about the owl, was it's feathers. I wanted to incorporate the fluffiness and the unzipped texture of it using chiffon material.
This is the texture I made. It has frayed raw edges to show the fluffiness and the colors chosen are from the moodboard. I'll post the moodboard and the garment photoshoot once I'm done.
