We spent the day dyeing up fabric and garments as the first stage of reworking. We dip dyed the pink silk top as seem in Louis Vuitton's spring summer 2010 collection, but with our own colour palette of pink, orange and navy blue. Our colour palette has evolved through working with the garments we have collected and fashion research including Miu Miu.
After presenting our project to designer Donna Wilson yesterday, she gave us some feedback and somethings to think about in terms of describing the project to our audience (high school pupils).

We intend to take our finished work to high schools and talk to the senior pupils about the techniques used in the project as well as giving them an insight into Textiles at Edinburgh College of Art and ECA in general. We have found that a lot of people don't fully understand what studying Textiles involves, and so this collaboration gives us a chance to illustrate to pupils what is possible through studying Textiles and hopefully promote the department.
