Fabrication

I think the colour pallet that has developed out of my research has really enhanced my designed. I took the colours from the different suits across the different years, so I tried to keep all of the fabric samples I collected within the same colour chart. 

From looking around Berwick street, I found a lot of strange and interesting fabrics that came across as looking futuristic and "spacey" which I would really like to incorporate into my final produce, but unfortunately because of the price I will have to find an alternative that I think will work well. 




One fabric that personally I think will be perfect for this project is neoprene. It is already being introduced into sportswear (such as the new Adidas Jacket that they have released for men in Neon colours), because it has the ability to keep your body at a certain temperature. In cold weather the Neoprene encourages your body to sweat and keeps the sweat at a warm temperature, which then keeps the body warm, but in hot weather it also is lightweight and doesn't overheat the body.
