Following the assignment using unique POV from neighborhood research. My POV was the traffic red light located at Flushing, Queens. Creating this looks using the inspiration from the vision of the red light, I imagine living live through Scarlet (a red tone) color glass. Including element from the neighborhood I was assign to research, I have create a mood board with graffit, paint, collage of different image I have taken from the neighborhood. Red was the main color of that neighborhood. AFter creating a mood board, I have come up with a few looks using not my design vision but instead, I imagine my vision was the traffic light. This 3 design was what the traffic light see everyday from it POV. Lastly I have chosen to create this looks using all of the element on the mood board like graffiti, splash paint, distress denim and embroidery. different length of hand beaded strings was used to replicated the paint dripping from all of the graffiti in that neighborhood. Bringing a literal street style fashion design from the traffic light POV. With some new skills set Ms. Jen has help me develop, I try to execute the vision to real life.
