Tuesday

​Todays tutorial was really helpful, we talked through my work for the bridal buyers award and discussed what I should do next. I am really happy with the progress I have made this week as I feel that I have tried a lot to focus on my drawings. I struggle with my drawings as I feel that they never fully capture what I am trying to portray,  but I feel that these have really progressed over the past few days, so I am going to continue to practice so that I can keep improving.
Over the next few days I will work on developing fabric samples for this competition, as I have found a fabric I really like but it is out of my price range but I am going to do experiments so that I can create my own that has the same effect just cheaper!

Thursday

Today we had our first Pecha Kucha, this went well, however I don’t really see the point of it, the idea behind it and how to complete it were never properly explained to us, although I didn’t understand why we were doing it I did find the advice helpful, it helped me a lot with the direction of my essay, I am going to be exploring sustainability throughout the bridal industry,  and the different ideas being brought to the table to make the industry more sustainable. I have started looking at materials, from milk, hemp and bamboo to wild nettles, as well as the tradition of passing the wedding dress through the family. I will also be looking at how opinions can be changed into how people buy their wedding dresses or rent their dress.

Friday

​Today we had a group tutorial with one of our tutors, this was a really good session to make sure that we were all on the write page and on track. It was really good to hear lots of peoples opinions on my work, giving me lots I can work on until my next tutorial. I feel I am getting a lot better at tutorials and I feel a lot more confident presenting my work which is helping me be able to convey my ideas a lot clearer.
