I m back to school!

Hi Reader!
Few months have passed after the last blog post, and I 've got some news to share with you!
After the holidays I 've decided to enrol for school again! Surprise surprise! I surprised myself too!


I finished school in 2010-2011, ending up with a Graphic Design Diploma and moved in the UK a few months later.

I didn't want to get into university but starting to put my hand on work, and I was tired to sit on a chair.
I worked all these years in England and then enrolled for a year introduction course on Fashion in 2017.



I was a bit scary, so many years out of the school routine and the challenge of technical lessons in another language. Still, in the end, I was happy with my improvements and wanted to go further in education.



Few years passed so quickly, and I decided to go back to school again, for my second Diploma, this one in Fashion production.

The class's students are younger then me, actually I am the oldest! That's made me shyer in introductions, feeling the gap of age fitting in my already weak social confidence! But with lessons passing by, I 've started to know the others better and feeling less awkward.
 
I want to share with you my school updates about lessons, essay and things I'll learn!

Some Units are about doing some blogging about Fashion and co, so I 'll probably do that here!

TROUSERS - History and preparation for UNIT 121: pattern Construction

  Xmas Holidays,be festive, home chores, homework for January, homework for the holiday period, meanwhile working in a new place... I always plan to relax and be lazy for the holidays, as well because I usually work more during the festive seasons ( damn hospitality jobs) but I always ended up in my studio trying to make something new (usually with meltdowns involved) or studying (looking nerdier than what people could think). So, here I am on my first official real day off, just after Xmas, searching and collecting info about my next Unit, Unit 121. Unit 121, it's a fashion college unit, about Pattern Construction, in this case, Trousers construction. (with all this Buffynism all around, I read in my mind Room 314 instead of unit 121, eh eh- I m losing my s***t) I am really excited, because I never adventure into making any trousers from scratch and rarely made some repair or alteration on it. It's a scary section from a beginner, so I am really happy to deal wi...

Kimono inspirations, Task 1 -Unit 4

  Task 1: Research your interpretation of the theme of "KIMONO". Consider the following ways of generating and developing ideas: mind mapping, word association, primary source photography and drawing, internet & book research, making samples and prototypes. Being honest with you, I do not have ideas for this unit yet, so I am going to try some different techniques to gain some info and ideas. I don't know so much about kimonos in order to deconstruct the idea of it, I will collect some informations and inspirations. First I did a mind mapping of some basic technical info about kimonos: Then some word associations with all the thing that comes in my mind right now... (about kimonos, but just to let you know I am thinking about making some gnocchi too...)     Because I have mentioned that, there are many kinds of Kimono types and of obi styles, I will collect some photos of the differences between each type, in order to see which could be my inspirat...
