PROCESS BEHIND MY WORK



My outfit centers around liberation and resistance, but also love and appreciation for my heritage and the Middle Eastern diaspora, fusing punk with and traditional middle eastern cultural attire.



Fit 1


JACKET:



The jacket is my most successful piece despite being the most difficult to create due to my inexperience with making clothes.


HEADRESS:





JEANS




To be honest there is no point in me including the jeans for it has the least


Fit 2


HEADPIECE:





GOWN:




:

This outfit was much more simpler to make but l had no idea what l was doing. I pinned fabric to the manaquine how l wanted it to rest then sewed a few parts of it to get fitted.  Then l got vines that I pruned from my garden willow tree willow tree that l always sit under and speak to, and wrapped wire around it just like l did with the headpiece. Then l sewed it to the collor of the gown  and despite it breakin the wire does a great job of keeping it fully flexible and intact. I added embellishments to match with the coin headress then I attached some gold painted leaves to match with the other headpiece. I was very ontentional with my placements, looking back on my reference drawing and making transitions from small leaves to bigger on the shoulders to emphasise that v shape taper. Then l flipped o. Some rouge leaves o. The side inspired my the ancient Sumerian and Greek cloaks.



PROSTHETIC:




There was not enough time to complete the prosthetic.
