Then I began to think about my final line up. Usually when drawing a final line up I illustrate it all myself but I wanted to try something different so I decided to it on photoshop. I scanned in all of my illustrations and then played around with colour on photoshop. I chose to use the head of Julia Sarr-Jamois for my illustrations. Julia is an editor at i-D magazine and I chose her because she is the type of person that I'd want to wear my clothes. She wears bright colours and takes risks with her clothing choices. She isn't considered a stereotypically 'sexy woman' but she is sexy through her confidence and boldness. When she walks into a room people think wow I want to know her.
This is the final line up that I created on photoshop. I think it is a good first attempt but if I was going to use this as my way of showing my clothes I need to practice more. I think the drawings are messy, partly because I didn't have time to draw them properly before I scanned them, so I need to take the time to make these perfect before scanning. I'm also not sure if I like the legs and hands so I would need to find a way to do this better. Although this didn't turn out as well I would've liked I do think it was useful to do because it made me think about my presentation in a new way rather than just doing it how I always do. One thing I really liked about doing it on photoshop was being able to scan my fabrics in and put them into my illustrations. I didn't have all the fabrics that I wanted to use but on the yellow dress and skirt you can really see the texture of it and I think this helps to bring my drawings to life. When I'm next doing a final line up I'm going to go back to hand drawing my designs but maybe find a way to collage a person's face and some fabrics into my illustrations.
