PORTFOLIO - MOULAGE



(I have recently a few posts based on this project which I will link to at the end of this post.) 


Moulage was one of the first projects that started off the second year. The propose of the project was to undestznd the technique 'MOULAGE' (form of pattern cutting), the technique itself allowed me to understand that there were more was that a garment could be constructed. By using the stand as a guidance for sizing I managed to create ensembles that represented the technique.





The project also entailed how to use spec sheets and costing sheets. The sheets had a feel of a short evaluation on what and outlook as to what has been constructed. The costing sheet was a summary/receipt on the fabrics that have been used, the costing sheet was also a look as to how much the garment could be sold for.
The spec sheet had a summary on the official measurements on the garment, this would be an insight on how much the garment COULD go for judging on the looks of the garment rather than the costing.
