oh here is my final piece for my final major project

I don't usually model my work, when I create a garment
I always have a strong idea and image of the person I see wearing my design.
And of course for my Tribute to Heritage project I never in a million years
imagined myself modeling my designs for my project. But after some encouragement from
my fashion tutor and lack of availability of my model I had no choice but to model the garments myself.
I suppose I was a little apprehensive about modelling my own designs because I felt there would be too much ego in my motives for choosing to wear my own designs. But I suppose if I can't be comfortable in my own design, how do I expect someone else to be? So I swallowed my pride and modelled my own garments and it felt REALLY good!

















Special thanks to Jade M.
for taking these lovely shots for me.
And my mother for allowing me to use
her flowers.
