CREATIVE CONSTRUCTION: DRAPING FROM OBJECT
This project is from an exercise where we were tasked to take an everyday object and use its shape to drape a garment. I chose to take the shape of a tiny toy seal I had gotten from a kinder egg as inspiration. I took meticulous measurements of the toy and from that made scaled-up version of it in muslin. I draped several different variations until settling on the final shape of this anorak inspired reversible cape.
