russian roulette

During the Fall Semester of this year, I took a class called Problem Solving; we made garments out of unusual materials, from shower curtains to candy wrappers to bubble wrap. One of the assignments was to create a garment based on a game. My choice, in an effort to stay away from the inevitable board and card game genre, was Russian Roulette.



This shot is from the class critique, so it's not great quality, but as you can see I used paper, tulle, netting, and bullets to create this stormy outfit. (Model: Claire Galusha)

Our task was then to create a full collection based off this assignment. I expanded on the idea of darkness, storms, volume, and shape to come up with the following ten piece collection: First is the mood board, then illustrations (which still need Photoshop work), then flat sketches.




Still love it! The oversized shapes and cropped shirts are so right now.
