In the fashion class we are immersed in a creative process led by Susan Becker to discover the costumes for the November Dance concert.  We have been riffing off images from the blog writings that choreographers have posted, and looking at the movement on video. From this source we have created story boards of found images and our own sketches, and created mind-maps as ways of brain storming and discovering direction for the costumes. At the moment we are draping forms and creating ideas using large tee shirts. The colors you see in these images are random and not the color scheme for the costumes themselves.

The idea is to make up some prototypes that students can wear during the dance jam next Thursday evening to see them on moving bodies.

Here are some examples of found images / sketches / mind-maps and draped forms from class on Wednesday October 2nd……………
