Inspiration comes all many forms

June 15th, 2011 posted by admin

So I was having a bit of a sewer’s block, if that technically makes any sense! I was meant to be helping to design and make the costumes for a fashion show that was taking place at my university. The show didn’t have a specific theme to work towards, which is why I think I found it so difficult to come up with any designs. I was endlessly flipping through magazines and books trying to find some inspiration or just find anything at all that would help me but to no prevail.

It wasn’t until I saw my friend who was looking at online at websites that offered cd printing for his band’s new album that the inspiration really struck me! I would theme it around music and use a load of old cds that I had lying around to make a dress. Once I knew what design I was working towards it was easy, I got started right away and had my outfit finished in no time, and it looked absolutely amazing!! Once the other costumer makers saw it they all wanted to incorporate the theme into their designs and the whole show suddenly became based around my dress!

On the night of the show I asked my friend and his band to come along and play at the after party as a thank you (as it was him who gave me the inspiration after all). The night was a huge success and everyone loved it, now everyone is saying I will have to be the designer for all the upcoming shows as well. At least I know I can find inspiration in the most unlikely places now!
