long time

I know I haven't been posting for a while, but I have just moved back home to Manchester for the summer and have had to sort so many things out! I am actually still living out of my suitcase, I think I will be living like that until I leave in again in September...

Anyway good news...I got the placement yayyyy, so excited I finally start on Monday, cannot wait! Will try and get lots of photos. Just waiting for results of my 3rd year of uni now.

I found out yesterday evening that because I hadn't included any research for my Ellesse design they weren't too keen on the designs; so they gave me another chance which is so nice of them!

Did you know Ellesse has just completed their 50th anniversary, I didn't! I found it very beneficial to look at they company and the research I found was phenomenal, such interesting pieces. They were a massive brand in the 80s for casual sportswear and still are still using 80s influences which I think is a great selling point because they are keeping so true to their heritage.

The above images are those from the Autmn/Winter 2010 collection from Ellesse

The above is the re-design that I have done for Ellesse

waiting game

Desperately waiting for the week to arrive so that I can find out if I have got a placement guaranteed for over the summer holidays! I am so excited that I may be getting to design t-shirts for Ellesse. It's awesome, they had sent me a brief to design four t-shirts in three different colours. I have attached an image to this post let me know what you all think!
