Live Brief: Denim Samples

Wanting to work on denim, I decided to recyle about four pairs of old jeans varying in wash and colour.
Inspired by Old Navys used of stripes and slightly influenced by my self intiated brief, I used an old debit card to smooth paint over the denims. I worked in the womenswear collection pallette as these samples were mainly for the womens wear collection but after I had done them I feel they can work equally as well for the girls collection.



To create these is used image maker which as i analysed in my sketchbook didnt work particulary well - nothing as vivd or clear as a screen print, but i beleive was still worth a go to achieve the desired effect in the space of time i had to complete samples. to develop these further i would like to experiemt with holographic foils inspired by the jeans i looked at in my denim research. i like how the colour palleterte works quite compliemtary to the darker wash of this denim. I wuld also use a cheese grater to distress and fray the denim and this has given it a more worn and casual look and is quite on trend at the moment.
With this idea i see it more of a placement print idea on denim garments like dungerees, mom jeans and pinnafores for both women and girls.
