**King Kong Fashion Design Collection**

 This was the last design for my university, and the entry to many more designs i will be doing in the future when i can be a successful fashion designer.  I want to start my own company or work to another company, but i must say this is hard in where i live, currently i'm finding job not as designer but any other related, so i can win money and study a little bit more or use it to something good...
 I need to have patience and not giving up, but its really hard, everyday i get more depressed, i keep having the thoughts of choosing the wrong subject, wasting my time and that i'm not good enough as designers. 
Its really painfull and i feel like crying everyday, and it doesn't help when your family is always remenbering you how useless you are...

Anyway, this is not the topic of the post. For this collection as it says on the title it is inspired on the movie King Kong and the clothes used on Hollywood on the years 1930. My outfits were different from everyones,  because its not dramatic or has a lot of shinning stuff; but its because on that period of time the money went down and many people lost their jobs, like the main actress of the movies. So its kind of clothes not for rich people neither poor, clothes for so so people i guess. I also wanted to express with my outfits the cute, nice, good, humility, kindness of the girl Ann Darrow and King Kong.

Im still waiting for the professional photos. So i'll make another post about this later when i get them.

This time i will just posting my final art of the designs, which was made with little time, so i did like a really weird edition of some photos with the photos of the clothes. We spent more time of making the drawings of the accessories.

This time was wedding concept, the bride, husband and the maid of honour.
 And our clothes we will be using for the fashion show.
The failed edition of my designs, we only got one week to do this,
plus we had to finish sewing the clothes and other subjects too.



 Here are some photos took by Ignacio Ravelo, a student from my university which is really good at taking photos.

Of course i had to put him a monkey mask to be properly King Kong. :D

I look like shit there, i will explain the reason on my next part.
The clothes im wearing there i also design and made them.




 I have to say that the hair pin and flowers are all made by me. Well, actually all the accessories. Even the flowers on the dress i made the design and got it cut on the cloth so i could sew it by hand to the dress. A lot of hand delicated work.

Here are the photos taken from my friends and family of the fashion show.

*** Kuro to Shiro Fashion Design Collection***


 This are the final arts of my designs i did on february of this month, i used diverse programs for making them, until the point of almost killing my poor computer. I did skin and hair of all in corel painter, the clothes i took photo of the patterns and edit them on Illustrator, and end up doing the background on Photoshop, and some details of the phantasy outfit.

 For this project we made night dress for girl and men; and phantasy (bizard- random outfit), the topic was to be inspired on japanese designers, i picked Limi Feu, cause she has a minimalist style and passion for black and white colors... I like many of her designs.

  The collection its called Kuro to Shiro , which means Black and White in japanese, tought in japanese you read from B to A, so its White and Black. 








And this is how they end up looking in real.
 I want to say "Yes, i design and made the clothes! Its not an easy job... in my next post i will show the photos of my first fashion show"

Yeah, chubby small one its me T^T

*** Kuro to Shiro Fashion Design Collection part II ***


 Hello, in this post i will be talking about the fashion show. It was a really good experience, to have the oportunity to everyone see your job, i didn't even care what they thought of my work, i was happy enough to finish all the outfits and present them without any problem.

But to have a fashion show its really expensive, our class had to pay everything, we pay millions for this fashion show, we also had to pay the models and their make up and food. It was almost like babysitting models, lucky enough i didn't have to worry about their transport...

I arrived around 12 pm, but my models weren't there yet around 1 pm the make up artist i contracted arrived, she usually makes my hair and so on, so i rely on her. The best thing i ever did, it was really the best having her there, she even helped me dress the models and courage me that everyone will go perfect.
 I actually didn't have to worry at all, i was probably all the time sit just watching my models getting ready.
I didn't eat that day, i was too nervous to eat, so i gave my lunch to the make up artist and my models ate well enough, can't complaint at all!  Later they practice the runway and took the photos.

Around 5 or 6 pm i dressed myself, i could even take a rest and re do my make up. So it was really calm, but when it started, the closer it was to my turn, i got more nervous, because i had to also walk on the runway as designer, so i was worry about not falling down. Lucky, i didn't fell. Lot of my friends laughed that i walked quickly  >///<, i was nervous. But at the end of the day i was like seriously happy, because it feels like making your dreams true, thought im not fan of runway and fashion shows, i'm more like having my own shop selling my stuff or selling my designs to others company. But a fashion show it's really a memorable thing, that you would want to do again.

My male models, i made a close friendship which died now that i don't need them lol XD
But it was fun, both of them are friends now, and they annoyed me a lot during
the whole thing. About being small and so on =.= but even so that relieved my stress
