Final piece

 For my final fashion garment for this project I decided to produce a top. This is because I wanted to do something different to what I normally do (dresses) and for this reason it made me take risks and push the boundaries that I wouldn't normally do. 

Firstly I chose my material I wanted to use. I already knew what material I wanted to use with doing previous samples. The samples helped me to experiment with new techniques using hot air. I used a white sheer material with black Chinese writing on it. I find it looks elegant, flows well and is brilliant to use with hot air. It can imprint a shape , and also it can crease and crimps the fabric together it gives off an interesting effect. Secondly I took measurement (my bust, shoulder length and the length the top would be) . Since I did my sampling I knew what I was doing so I got stuck in and cut the frount and back out and brunt it together. I took some of my sample and sewed that on aswell as sawing that actual garment.
