In the efforts to clean up some of my sewing and crafting area, I’m going through a bunch of my old projects from Design School. In a previous post I introduced the Colour Book, and since it’s such an image-heavy post, I’m dividing it up a little, so this is the next set of illustrations from my Colour Book.

As I’ve mentioned in previous Design School posts, illustration wasn’t my strongest skill in school. I started out pretty weak, and did improve, but I have no notions that I was ever a great fashion illustrator. So – please be kind checking out these projects from when I was in school!

Post #1  – Primary, Secondary & Intermediate colour groups (Read it here!) 

Post #2 – Monochromatic Intermediate, Analogous, and Complimentary Intermediate. (Read it here!)

Post #3 (this one!)- Split complimentary, Designers choice

In the efforts to clean up some of my sewing and crafting area, I’m going through a bunch of my old projects from Design School. Although I’ll be recycling most of the posters, I also have some smaller presentations I thought I’d share here too before either storing them – or recycling them too.

This post is about our Colour Book project.  Like the last set of posts, this is an image-heavy project, so I’ll be breaking up this project over three days.

This is going to be an image-heavy project, so I’m breaking it up into three parts.

Part one covered the project itself, blazers and shirts.  Read it here.

Part two showed off trousers and the accent jacket. Read it here.

Today’s post will show off the dress and skirts.
