(museum of natrual history)So sorry about the delays...my Internet forecast has been a bit cloudy and it's been a bit chilly sitting on the floor in the hallway to reach the Internet...
Anyways or should I say anyway (like the English...my friend Jita loves trying out her American accent around us and that was her word of the day yesterday...) I have some really exciting stuff to tell but I'll post it later b/c it's like a week old and 1/2 written in a saved draft I never finished...
So Classes...they are great! I love them. My corsetry class is going to be phenomenal. We are making an original 1860's corset....with 36 pieces of boning in it! a lot of work but it will be gorgeous! My draping classes is really neat too. This week we worked on draping collars (or colors as I swear she calls them lol). We started on peter pan ones and then she made us drape one that was our favorite from the clippings we had brought in. It was neat b/c she didn't give us instruction on the second one, b/c she wanted us to be creative and try and figure out how to make our own ideas on our own. Then my shoe design class. We are working on a theme for our line this week and drawing lasts (the form that gives the basic shape to your shoe) so we can understand the proportion of the shoe. It's nothing like you'd think, fyi... And then I LOVE my drawing and Illustration class. It's really going to help me develop my own style of design and drawing... it's very free not a lot of life drawing. Then my mandatory classes are exciting. One we have a different speaker every week form the fashion industry, so that has been REALLY interesting. Then the other one is going to museums, we went to the Barbican last week and I'm just getting ready to leave for the Vand A. Then I have EIP which is learning about the History of London mixed with today's London and we go on really long walks around the city...last week we went to Parliament and around there. And by the end of the semester I am going to have more 'inspiration' books that I will never run out of inspiration...it's just crazy...:)
Sorry I can't tell more at the moment but I'll try to post all about my adventure this weekend. Miss and love you all! xoxo
