How I Turn My Photos into Fashion Designs

2/3/2016

My passion for documenting the world around me feeds into my fashion design work. I love traveling. Photographing places of interest and visually appealing sights is a great way to capture the mood of the moment. But I don't just download my photos and store them on a hard drive. I print them out and surround myself with the stories they tell. In many cases, I use them in my dress of the day challenge.

Here is an example. Do you recall a sunset that took your breath away? Do you remember how the changing colors filled up your heart? The photo above is one such sunset. I took the picture and printed it to post above my work desk. And then I cut it up! Et voila, here is a dress design.

As a fashion designer I constantly look for balance in color, texture, and silhouette. Using photographs in my work pushes my creativity and teaches me about new ways to create artful designs. I think of how to cut a photo so the final design is visually appealing and interesting.
