Weekly Diary 26/09/14

Within this session we had to work like a stylist would, so our day started with a brief that was organised by our teacher and  that brief gave us task of styling a celebrity and a teacher  from our college. We had organise an outfit for the celebrity that wanted a suitable outfit  for a show, it had an unlimited budget and had conditions that it should suit the celebrity, the style should be from the 14/15 S/S trends. On the other hand a teacher from our college also wanted and outfit that trickled down from the celebrities outfit and had a budget of £200.

In the start of this task I had to pick out random teacher that from a pile of folded papers that had the name and image of an teacher from our college, after I knew the teacher the that I as going to style, I researched the different celebrities that were similar to our  teacher. The teacher I had to style was called Tina and she's female in her mid 40s. The celebrity that in my opinion was similar was Kris Jenner because they both are mature women an have the same body shape. They are most likely are the same age and would have a similar style that they both would find attractive.

To start the styling  researched the different types of body shapes and I found that apple  shape is the most suitable for both of my clients because they mature and elder women. once I was satisfied with the shape that I choose for them I researched into what garment suited that body the most. Through that research I discovered that they would both would suit V neck blouses and modest garments because clothing . After that I liked at the different types of trends that are around in 14/15 S/S the two trends that I found most suitable was Fix Up, Look Smart I chose that trend because it included various design that had smart and modest garments that would suit both of my clients and I also chose counting sheep's within that trend because it mixed professional colours with vibrant colours.

After all my base research was complete I looked into different types of High End designers   because they would suit Kris Jenner's lifestyle. The first designer that I looked into was Donatella Versace because her design were smart that would be more suitable for a mature women. The other designer that I looked into was Chanel because there was different types blouse designs that would boost up Kris Jenner's body shape. I've also looked into other designers such as Alexis Mabille, Giambattista Valli, Valentino, Roskanda Ilincic because  they all have similar designs and colours. On the other hand I have looked at shops Debenhams, Next, George for Tina because I found smart designs that were also affordable.

Once I had gathered all the designs I presented my work as a style mood board, and then I presented my ideas  to the class so its clear what research I've done and why I choose those particular garments.
