My first skirt and pants.. what do you think? ๐ I use Muslin to do my drafts. You donโt want to waste the fabric youโre working on, or maybe even a textile you created. This ensures the fit is correct with your client or mannequin. Always test designs with Muslin!!

Cargo pants I made into a maxi cargo skirt! Then I cut up some fabric and patched it right on to the skirt. This was my first project ๐๐ I donโt know how I feel about the patchwork but I added jean belts everywhere and I felt better. ๐ฅฐ

More fashion illustration! Practice makes perfect. If you want to really sell the image of the design you want in your head, you gotta draw them. They donโt have to be so realistic, but the realer the better. I like to draw as realistic as I can to sell myself on the design, or to make tech pacs. ...

Swipe right to see what I was working on ๐๐ป When I need inspo for graphic design, I go on Pinterest and add different backgrounds to the products I need to sell. Obviously, these are copyrighted I canโt use them (like the one above), but It helps me pinpoint a color scheme and the mood. Fro...

PSA: Stop throwing/losing/folding your patterns! Save them! It is worth all the energy you put into it. Place it on some brown packaging paper and either place them in a design portfolio, or roll them into tubes and place it somewhere safe ๐

HAPPY THANKSGIVING! I am so thankful for u ๐ I just wanted to touch on what I worked on quickly today! Manipulating some of my pieces I have on hand. Obviously, adding details like screen printing, hand painting, or rhinestones to pieces are way easier than making things from scratch. This is a ...

Going hard again with the pattern making. These are called darts, (open spaces outline in red). These are used to fit your garment on nicely around the curves of the body. That being the chest, the butt, the hips or the waist.

Swipe to see what inspired me today ๐๐ป My favorite material to deconstruct and rework with isโฆ JEAN! Iโve been getting a little *obsessive* about the chemicals. They seem to be inescapable, so here are some problems I try to work around. Jeans are usually made with GMO cotton and syntheti...

I LOVE going through vintage stores because sometimes they have custom pieces that inspire me so much. This textile reminds me of Boro fabric, (very sad backstory btw). However, throughout decades, this textile has been replicated beautifully and implemented in streetwear culture. Many famous design...

My first time playing with an airbrush ๐คฃ Iโve been dying to work with airbrushes so I decided to freestyle. I definitely will never freestyle again with airbrush because you need to have a beautiful momentum when itโs in your hand. I was going for spray painted calligraphy, iโm better off d...

hi โค๏ธ working on some fashion figures today. takes me like 4 hours to get these to look realistic. Believe it or not, I'm actually a fast pace drawer. I do everything in layers so it blends perfectly. I always sigh before I make these because I know exactly what iโm getting into, and iโm...

My most recent set ๐ Do you like it? Like iโve mentioned before I love deconstruction ๐ Iโm mixing and matching fabrics. Iโve been really wanting to make a blue set for a while too. I do a lot of graffiti work on the pieces I design, so the darker blue fabric caught my eye and I bought i...

Making textiles! I am definitely going to start getting in the habit of making my own textiles. It obviously does take extra time, but knowing how intricate my designs are, iโm best off making my own textiles. I feel far more satisfied with my creations when I put maximum effort. I am so happy wit...

I wear this crazy thing when Iโm going to sew and donโt want to bring a book bag or purse. I got my sewing needles, fabric chalk, fabric scissors, pins, thread and even mini notebook. ๐ This sounds like an AD but itโs not. iโm just always moving around with my materials! I wish my sewing ...

My real life art turned into fascination with graphic design. I am a self taught artist, so I just started scribbling on myself in high school drawing on my arms pretending like I had tattoos. I could barely draw. Then I started painting, that turned into painting on jeans and purses, then I downloa...

Swipe ๐๐ป Take a guess which fabric I have my eye on ๐ง๐คจ I feel like a kid in a candy store. Dressing up for the fabric store is fun for me too. I donโt only go for fabrics, I go for buttons, accessories, anything that really catches my eye. I feel like people donโt like to cross bound...

Sketch with me! I did mention I do not want to be posting my designs on any platform until Iโve made them. iโm going to let this slide though ๐ Creating my fashion figures has to be the easiest part of designing. So, iโd say fashion figures are the easiest, making the designs are second har...

You already know what iโm on today! More pattern making. Yes, this is actually my least favorite things to do when it comes to designing. I actually am more of a deconstruction queen at the moment.
