the final product

I chose to create this particular design because I felt it was the most aesthetically pleasing and it showed off a lot of different detailing. I wanted to use a hi-tech fabric that is waterproof but after looking around at different websites I realised that they were well out of my price range, so I decided to use shower curtain material, as it possessed many of the same qualities. 

The part that proved to be the trickiest was making the hood. I couldn't quite get the sizing right and when I did it seemed flimsy and too light weight. Because of this I decided to give it a thicker lining making it appear fuller and heavier, giving off the look that I desired. If I had had more time to create this jacket I would have added an extra pocket on both of the upper arms and I would have lined the inside of the jacket just so that it was slightly more neater. 


My favourite part about the jacket definitely has to be the shoulders, I think they really work well with the contrasting colour of grey and they give the jacket more dimension, making it visually interesting.
