fashion school robot.... or zombie?

you are about to see why i've been so inconsistent.  imagine you're walking your dog.  little fido is so happy he's just prancing along, gently tugging on the leash.  suddenly, fido sees a squirrel and you find yourself flying down the street so fast you swear you broke the sound barrier.  
welcome to fashion school boot camp.

so i began the madness with  a little pink straight skirt for sewing class (no design freedoms besides fabric choice):


(hem and waistband to come...)


the fashion figure has now been permanently inscribed on my brain and is very close to solid muscle memory.



FACES!!  now my figures have eyes and no longer just a slit.  i cured their blindness.
(sorry for the poor contrast)



i turned a quote into an unhooked brassiere (abounding thanks to Mr. Christian Young)


"brevity is the soul of lingerie." --Dorothy Parker

i collaged a beatle's quote using a monotone color scheme. (just makes you wanna say aaaaahhhhhhhh, doesn't it? i love yellow)


i did an HELLACIOUS amount of draping (duh).  
**Note: if you think it will take 1-2 hrs to finish draping homework, it will ACTUALLY take 6-8. yes. brutality, that dress form.  love/hate.


aaaaaaaaaaand i started an image board for my fictitious women's apparel brand "botanique" ('botany' in french).


and.................BREATHE. 
no. i don't sleep.
adios.
