Tiffany & co

Whilst researching into brands for the new brief which I have previously mentioned I started to look at Tiffany & co.

Famous for their little blue box when you closely analyse their advertising you can tell that they have invested a lot of money into creating this image for themselves. An image of romance and perfection all fronted by a little blue box.

Personally I love this iconic image that represents them and if I see that certain shade of blue I automatically think of this brand.

Guess?

As I have mentioned for this new brief I have to look at brands and their advertisements. Whilst shopping at the Trafford Centre I decided that it would be a good idea to get some primary research, so I went into the Guess? shop and asked if it would be OK for me to take a few pictures; I wanted to show the layout and the pictures used around the shop. To my luck the boss of the shop was in that day and she kindly offered to put together a bag of goodies.

What she included in the bag was: leaflets and cards advertising their accessories, one type of packaging that they use, a form that they use, printouts of their marketing and features in magazines, a catalogue showing their products, examples of their carrier bags and what i think is the best part of it all an A3 size booklet showing the pictures from the advertising shoots that they have done with Ellen Von Unwerth.

It may sound a bit sad but I was so excited when I received this and it actually made my day.

Well you can only get if you ask.

One Teaspoon

After reading another blog called fashiontoast.com I came across a beautiful brand called one teaspoon. Its a Australian based brand that creates some amazing pieces.

There are two pieces that I have actually fallen in love with they are the 'lulu bodice' and the 'lulu tutu dress'

Take a look at www.oneteaspoon.com.au

New Brief

After handing in the previous unit of my course last Monday morning, we launched the new brief. When I first read through the brief and tried to process the fact that we are starting from scratch, again, I was actually liking the sound of it.

During this brief we will be looking at another area of the fashion industry which is Advertising.

The first thing that I am doing is researching in to different brands and there advertising methods.

Final feature.

Finally I can add the finishing touch to my accessory. In my original design I was going to sew beads around the edge of the couching but I adapted it and decided that I would just sew a bead in the middle of the couching as it would have made the edges to heavy and they wouldn't keep there shape.

Crochet.

The next part to making my accessory that I have been talking about in countless post now is the crocheting. I added chains of crocheting shaped like a chosen shape from my observational drawings to the outside side of my shoe.
Very nearly there now.
