How can I as a graphic designer makean innovative contribution to ashiondesign, pairing digital textile printswith three-dimensional sculpturalelements o clothing design?
O R IG IN A L P R O P O S A L Q U E S T IO N
My primary objective is to explore ashion through the eyes o a graphic dI intend to use the knowledge that I have about graphic design, and use th
textile printing process to merge graphic design with ashion. I will be expI can contribute as a graphic designer to ashion design through graphic tand pattern work. I will not only be expanding my own skill set and explor
new side o graphic design, but also using environmentally sensible and su
decision-making to do so. Its important to me to actually implement sustapractices into my work, rather than just simply talk or conceptualize abou
intention is to make an innovative contribution to textile design using my skill set rom the rich and complex education I have received so ar. I am in applying the strength o my graphic understanding to a three-dimensio
sculptural application in ashion design.
My primary message is to clearly articulate the inuence that graphic desi
on ashion design, and the richness that it can produce. I intend to explorbetween two-dimensional surace prints and three-dimensional sculptural
in ashion, and discover how graphic design can bridge the gap between thope to investigate what kinds o connections I can make between the priclothing design itsel, and merging the 2D and 3D planes to create a mean
intentional relationship o orm-making. How does graphic design transladimensional orm like the human body? What about the human body in m

My primary audience or this project is ashion designers, textile designers andgraphic designers. My secondary audience includes those who are ashionably
inclined and interested in clothing. I will be essentially making a line o menswearclothing.
What we wear each day is the external representation o ourselves; its how we present
ourselves to the outside world. Some o us chose to ampliy that expression, and reallyhave un with style and ashion, while others are content with something that justallows them to eel comortable. Whatever your tactic is or dressing yoursel everyday,
there is no denying that ashion is like an art piece that we wear on our bodies, insteado exhibiting on a canvas or presenting as a printed artiact. It is the one aspect o ourlives that we cant help but be even the least bit expressive with. Each garment that
you chose to wear says something about yoursel.

In my exploration I am interested balancing unctional and wearabgarments or men that are also higexpressive. They will demonstrate ornamental orm-making with a h
level o renement, derived rom mvisual communication training.
There are many trailblazers in the use o print and pattern on clothing. BBrooke, or example, is a label that is largely revered or their pioneering
digital print technique within the ashion industry.Gerlan Jeans is another leading print-based ashion line. It is the bo Gerlan Marcel, who creates extremely playul, bold, and bright prints a
expressive and essential part o her clothing.Manish Arora is perhaps the most extreme case o two-dimensiona
ashion. The Indian designer uses extremely dense pattern work to create
ashion designs that oten imitate nature. His designs are really over the todifcult to digest. A complete sensory overload.
But or me, The most inspiring ashion print pioneer is the late Al
McQueen. His genius and talent was supernatural and dark. McQueens wSS09 collection eatured multi-coloured diamond acet prints which he apleggings, dresses, and jackets. His lace and geometric print leggings are al
striking to me. His deep and twisted genius has had a proound eect on mgraphic designer embarking on a love aair with digital textile printing.

My frst research experiment, is more than just a prototype.
I have designed leggings and sent them to a digital textileprinter, Fabric On Demand. They will be sewn according
to the design that I have mocked up to the right, so I canget my toe in the water o digital textile printing, and how
it unctions in garment construction. This way, I will havetried the process once and will understand the way it works,
and what limitations it has. Their purpose is to be wornunder jeans. It will be a quick and unctional garment to
create or the cold winter months.

This is the mens leggings KWIK SEWpattern that Ipurchased at Hancock Fabrics in Overland Park, Kansas.I used it to determine how my design will be printed, and
based on that, how it will be constructed into a garment.
It will be given to Peggy Noland, along with the 2 printedyards o abric that I just ordered rom Fabric On Demand. Then, they will be sewn into leggings.

In ashion, the term croquis reers to a quick sketch o a
fgure, typically 9 heads tall, which creates the elongatedproportions or ashion illustration, with a loose drawing
o the clothes that are being designed. I rendered thefgures in a much more realistic manner, disregarding the
9 heads rule that is typical o the elongated model ormsused in ashion sketching.

I have decided now that whatever fnal artiact(s)I create, will be menswear garments only.
Originally I was hoping to design or both men
and women, but it dawned on me that is nota realistic undertaking or an undergraduate
Graphic Design student who has never hadashion design training o any kind.

As a simple exercise in orm making, I have created symmetrical geometr y studies. The use
o symmetry in these abstract graphic orms is associated with the way that the human body isbuilt on a symmetrical structure, and thereore clothing is naturally partial to being created in
a symmetrical ormat.
