some more about my exploration about shadow..

I took part at a Workshop, here are some pictures of my outcomes. Coulor shaps.......very interesting for the inspiration

I pute the pattern on my piece of paper and cut them out.

I sewed the pattern together .......

my outcome after 5 monts in Australia at the university was a paper jacket made out of patty pans. Isn`t it not great ???

Paper was really often used in in the fashion world. There is a long history about paper dresses, but I guess nowbody used patty pans to create a real garment. I like it.....

I coulered my paper "fabric" by the same way like i tryed it befor.

Now I had a big piece of paper "fabric" whit a beautiful and interesting patter....

A technique to coulor the paper. I wraped the paper at first...then i coulored with the maker. If you open the wraped paper....interesting prints are arised on my paper "fabric"

next step... I sewed the patty pans together a big piece of paper "fabric" arised

Next step I used party pants!!!

You can bring the party pans on different ways togehter. In this example I used pins. I made some of the party pins flat. Some of them remain in there normal form. If they are in there normal form, you can show them of diffrent perspectives. Form the bottom, the top or from the side.

My next idea, was to work with Party Pans.

Waving is a way to produce farbics. I translated this the way on paper.

I assembled the pieces togehter with glue. If I would work further....a garment could be arise.

I crafty the carton of the eggs in small pices.

I was at home and I would like to work with an another kind of paper.
But I hadn´t paper at home.
But then I had an idea! I took the carton of the eggs, which were in my fritch. It is an interessting kind of paper.

To have no material, can make us crative. That was the reason why I was looking in my flat for anything of paper. It is also no necessaryto buy brand new materials. It is nice to work with stuff, which you normally but in to the garbage. Recycling dresses can be arise.

Shadow!!! Whats is Shadow!!! Shadow is a shape!!

This shapes are quite interessting!!! How can we translate the shapes of the shadow of garments???

SHADOW!!!!!!!!!!

In what for a connection is shadow with garments?

There a real connection?

Or is it only a way to inspirate for a new creation or even for a whole collection?

For me it is a inspirtion source at the moment!

I like to show shadwo in garments:

How can I show shadow? On the material, I guess.

I chose white butter paper.

Why? How can you show shadow on the material paper?

It is an interesting material, it is a kind oft soft, movable, you can fold it or crumple it. White is a neutral colour.

You can see the shadow at the garment, on the way you produce the clothes.

But how is the feeling to be dressed in paper?

It is a feeling of simplicity. But you sweet in it.

How would be the reaction from people, if I would wear this kind of dresses on the street?

Would they be impress, or would they laugh?

Why is the reaction form people so importent for clothes?

What other materials can I use to show shadow?
