1. STATEMENT OF INTENT
You have time to write your original statement to propose your final year collection design direction. You should be aware of your skill level, and so you should direct your vision to play to your strengths, and minimise your weaker areas. The statement of intent is in word document format, which includes theoretical text citations, and images of your semester 1 works alongside research and reference images from secondary sources. Include in your statement an intended work schedule starting from December until the submission date in the 3rd week of April. It is essential that you plan your own personal deadlines for next term, according the to the weekly outlines proposed in the module guide.

Title of the graduate collection:

Media used to realise your collection:

Personal design philosophy:

Summary of collection concept:

Secondary Research based on the study of:

Theoretical link with CCS:

Target Market (intensive understanding of):

Market Sector:

Intended end product:

2. FINAL COLLECTION PROPOSAL
Through tutorials with your lecturers, you should have a strong idea of your objectives. Your design direction by now should be well established through the technical experimentations in semester 1 that you should utilise and develop to realise your collections. As a Womenswear/ Menswear/ Fashion Textiles student, you will realise 6 outfits. Your design decisions in terms of fabric, detail, styling and shape need to be defined during the Christmas break, and it will be a matter of following it all through in semester 2 to avoid surprises later on.

In week 2 (14th January), you will be expected to bring the following work in the format listed below for class presentation and a critique session in front of a Jury of industry professionals.

a). PORTFOLIO FOR FASHION DESIGNERS:

A3 PORTFOLIO CLASS PRESENTATION (Use temporary method of fixing images as you may be asked to move/redesign the page. No digital layout)

Your portfolio will contain the following elements:

– VISUAL RESEARCH
1 x A3 folder of loose sheets laid out in a cohesive sequence.

The design work should be concise and visually exciting. You may use text. The pages should indicate a strong sense of concept, design inspiration, colour, texture, visual connections and a wide range of sources. Include drawings, paintings, collage, photography, Tear sheets from newspaper/magazine/fashion images, fabric reference and an indication of product and market aspirations.

Both your research and design development folders will need to include evidence that you are considering your market level. This should be visual and incorporate both product and consumer analysis.

– DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
1 x A3 folder of loose sheets, ordered in a cohesive sequence.

Include Fabric Samples along with supporting design development work, detail samples, embroideries, and fabric manipulations…Toiles can be added to the flat work through photography or direct scanning of key areas/details, and should be shown in relation to fabric and styling Ideas. The process of stand-work must be documented photographically and used in conjunction with technical drawings/styling references.

Design Proposal – sketch 12 outfits as a line-up on two A3 page. This can be drawn, collaged, cut up photos, mix media etc. You need to ensure that your 12 outfits utilise your ideas and work as a collection. You have to develop a collection with a varied merchandising plan in relation to your market sector. After negotiation the 12 designs, we will narrow down to 6 final outfits. Each of your 6 outfits should then be further documented in one page per outfit/piece, including flat work, fabric information, colour etc.

You are submitting design work that will contribute to your BA (Hons) Degree. You should organise and present this with informed sensibilities and aesthetic taste. Any visuals/fabric/styling ideas should be collated in an intelligent manner. Each page must show a focus and relationship with the items placed upon it.

FABRIC SAMPLES should be placed in a folder and accompany the 2D work. See below for toile and pattern information.

We do expect to see evidence that you have been developing your ideas through 3D to a high standard. The minimum requirement will be:
* 3 toiled outfits
* 3 sets of patterns (in work towards completion)
* Costing (to consider if range is fitting into market level)
* Finishes and edges, i. e. trims, raw, etc.
* Sampling of details, i. e. pockets etc.

Remember that you all have this work already it is just a matter now of putting it into some order, ready for processing garments.

b). PORTFOLIO FOR FASHION TEXTILE DESIGNERS:

A3 PORTFOLIO CLASS PRESENTATION (Use temporary method of fixing images as you may be asked to move/redesign the page. No digital layout)

Your portfolio will contain the following elements:

– VISUAL RESEARCH
1 x A3 folder of loose sheets laid out in a cohesive sequence.

The design work should be concise and visually exciting. You may use text. The pages should indicate a strong sense of concept, design inspiration, colour, texture, visual connections and a wide range of sources. Include drawings, paintings, collage, photography, Tear sheets from newspaper/magazine/fashion images, fabric reference and an indication of product and market aspirations.

Both your research and design development folders will need to include evidence that you are considering your market level. This should be visual and incorporate intensive and rationalised product and consumer analysis.

– DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
1 x A3 Presentation Folder of loose sheets, ordered in a cohesive sequence 1 x A4 Technical File of textile experimentations and a fabric library

Include Fabric Samples along with supporting design development work in Technical File, detailed samples, embroideries, and fabric manipulations… Design ideas can be added to the flat work through photography or direct scanning of key areas/details, and should be shown in relation to fabric and styling ideas. The process of designing fabric for fashion garments must be documented photographically and used in conjunction with technical drawings/styling references. You are expected to work with your Fashion Design collaborator on and off the body to visualise ideas for garment design.

Design a variety of motifs and patterns in preparation for Semester 2 Portfolio. The total swatches you are required to have in by week 13 is fifty pieces, you must have at least thirty of these produced by formative feedback in week 8. You need to ensure that your designs, choice of fabrics, colours, texture and scale work as a collection in relation to your market sector.

You are submitting design work that will contribute to your BA (HONS) Degree. You should organise and present this with informed sensibilities and aesthetic taste. Any visuals/fabric/styling ideas should be collated in an intelligent manner. Each portfolio page must show a relationship between the textiles as a collection that can be applied to a variety of fashion garments that form one runway collection. You must extensively research runway collections to understand how to more effectively build a textiles collection from semester 1.

FABRIC SAMPLES should be placed in a fabric library folder and accompany the design work and technical samples showing consideration for your final concept.

We do expect to see evidence that you have been developing your ideas through to a higher standard. The minimum requirement will be:

* 20 x primary sketches for motif development (initial in depth drawing, with consideration of rendering and shade, form and composition) * 20 x motif developments in your signature style for screen and digital print * 10 x repeat systems using combination of motifs (playing with scale and structure) * Consideration of these designs on the body in collaboration with Design students * Fabric Library with cloth content, price and sourcing info * Technical samples of 3D experimentation, as an extension of skills from Level 2
