Busy Busy Busy!

I’ve got quite a lot to be getting on with at the moment what with our design project, Manifesto, as well as our Lectra and Buying and Merchandising lessons which are both new to us.

I'm enjoying the Manifesto project and my particular theme so I'm getting quite stuck into the project although I'm waiting on the right sized sketch book!! I’ve spent a lot of time producing designs which relate to my theme and I’ve just started putting together my theme board which should provide me with more inspiration for designs.

Today we received our mark for the Pattern Cutting and Construction unit. I'm really happy with my grade and it's great to have hard work recognised. Next week we get feedback on our Fashion Principles unit so hopefully I will be equally happy with that!

In our last Buying and Merchandising lesson we were given our first assessment. We have to choose a fashion brand/company and a particular site it is situated in. We then have to think and write about it's 'Points of Difference' and do an 'S-Formula'. I'm feeling quite optimistic towards completing the assignment as I have chosen to focus on Topshop, Exeter where I worked for just under a year. This means I am in a fortunate position as I have a good knowledge of the shop and this will definitely help when completing the essay.
