The Printed Results!

I collected my print today and I was very happy with the results! I only put an order through of 1metre:

I love the colour and visual textures. I think the print is very effective when draped as all the colours marge together creating an abstract view of it. I would have loved to do a draped design (McQueen has included many printed draped pieces in his last few collections) but I wouldn't have had enough time to do all the patterns for it! So I've stuck with a simple design so that I am able to complete the garment in time for our deadline!
Maybe over summer I will use this print again to make another design!



Now I have to decide the colour that will go best at the side panels:



In my previous post my drawing of the dress involved a torqouise colour as the side panels. The closest torquoise colour I found was too green ion comparison to the print so it was not a good compliment. At the moment I think a dark navy would suit best as then the print will be stand out clearly.
