Coast Live Project : Development-Draping

Give that our concept is a mix of art currents , I have opted to look into work of the Post- Impressionist master Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. I have taken some of the shapes from his  work and  gave them volume an dimensionality by drapping on the mini mannequin . I prefer using mini mannequins at the beggining of the design process  because it saves up on fabric , being mor eco friendly and reducing costs .
                                   A little splash of Degas and the airborn feel of his dancing ballerinas
Incorporating the drappes into my own illustrations , aiming to give the shapes a place into contemporary fashion.
