Tailoring

Apart from my Final Major Projects, this has probably been my favourite project to date. It was something I had always been interested in, and when the opportunity arised, especially getting to work with Monica Tyler - Head Tailor at the Welsh National Opera, I couldn't wait!!!!

This project was based on Architecture, so having previously been able to travel the Australia, it was only fitting that I focused my project on the Sidney Opera House!! I based my design on the sails or peaks of the Sidney Opera House, and also took inspiration from architecture from a visit to Witley Court, Worcestershire. Information can be found here: http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/daysout/properties/witley-court-and-gardens/

I got to learn from scratch how to make a tailored garment from my own design, and I thoroughly enjoyed this project! Needless to say, I can't wait to do tailoring again!!
