CASE STUDY: WEEK THREE AND FOUR

Being shown past assignments actually made this assignment seem easier, I'm not as worried as I was about it. After giving out 27 questionnaires and conducting 4 interviews with fashion photography and design students, I think my primary research is done. On a personal note, conducting those interviews I've been able to show myself how far I've come in terms of confidence in the last 6 months and...

PARIS #3

We spent our third and final day in France sight seeing. I have to admit, I didn't chose the best shoes for romping around the streets of Paris, although the view from the Eiffel Tower was worth it. On this day, I opted for a simple monochrome look. I absolutely love the look of these trousers and mules.  PHOTO CREDIT: BETH CARTWRIGHT DETAILS; Blazer; H&M Croptop;...

This is what I wore on the first day, obviously I relied on simple monochrome. I am in love...

I was able to give my questionnaires to 30 people as well as make observations and meet members of the...

CASE STUDY: WEEK ONE

I was so worried about this assignment before this week. I thought there was too many boxes it had to tick: Something you're interested in, involve a placement, Events based, primary research, secondary research. The term 'placement' irritates me as it is. A week in a cold, developing gallery, is not going to benefit me, other than knowing what not to do. The term Continual Personal Development(CPD)...
