Initial Fabric Research.

This is a picture of some of my initial fabric research. I have tried to collect as many different samples that I think are suitable for my set and costumes so that when I go to the fabric shops I have more of an idea of what I'll want in terms of colour, texture and content. When developing my designs and throughout my degree I have found it increasingly important to fully consider the sampling. After all when the costumes are made nobody ever sees the design again, it is the final piece that matters. I think with this project I want the costumes to look authentically medieval yet with some interest as well. Therefore the fabrics I should really use are things like linen, wool and silk for the more upper class characters. In conclusion I am keen to get the right fabrics for my characters as the samples are always an essential and extremely important part of the design.
