I just found your blog and I am OBSESSED with your edits!

Thank you so much for saying that. Your blog and edits are so pretty!

I just want you to know that you were my inspiration for making icons and I learnt how by following your tutorials. That being said, if you had time, could you do some Coronation weekend icons of Kate and the Wales family?

Aw, that's so sweet and I'm glad that the tutorials have been useful!

As for the icons, I'm starting to make them... It might take a while as we had tons of events and pictures!

YOU ARE BACK AGAIN!!! ♡ I am always so happy to see new edits for you! I hope you have been very well.

Aww, thank you so much! I always enjoy posting but I have less and less time... I'm trying to get back to it as the Coronation approaches!

I've been doing fine, thank you x

3D FASHION

IRIS VAN HERPEN

Iris Van Herpen is a fashion designer and is known to be one of fashion’s most talented and ambitious creators who pushes the limits of fashion design. Since her first show in 2007 Van Herpen has been inventing new ideas and methods of stylistic ways by combining the most traditional and the most unusual materials and garment construction methods into her unique vision. She calls this design method “New Couture.”

Van Herpen is often recognised as a leader in out lining 3D printing as a garment construction technique, and as an innovator who is comfortable with using technology it is one of the normal rules in her work because she describes it as a sculptural nature and unfamiliar form.

When interviewing with Vogue magazine she was asked the question, 

What about 3-D printing? Her response was: I did my first 3-D-printed dresses in 2009. We couldn’t print to make it flexible yet, so I had to be inventive in how I was incorporating it into my collections. The good thing about it now is that flexible printing is much more durable than it used to be, so you can really do the usual stuff to it, you can wash it, you can press it. I was hoping in my mind it would go faster, but it doesn’t happen overnight.

CATHERINE WALES

Catherine Wales is a London based designer who hopes that her collection will show how 3D printing can sustainable sizing and cut down on wastage while supporting the consumers demands.

She created a collection named DNA which was inspired by the visual platform of human chromosomes, Project DNA is created almost with individual and unique components that allow it to be built in a number of directions. She used white nylon with a 3D printer, an eight-piece collection encompasses a scaffold-ed corset, a feathered shoulder piece and a waist bracelet complemented by four trans-formative headpieces; including a horn and a mirrored mask, and a cut out helmet.

Catherine’s initiative collection is completely unique and can be used to stimulate visionary thinking and scientifically to develop the theatrical  of luxury fashion prototyping within the 3D space.
