lingerie

I have decided to look into lingerie. I want to reinvent old fashioned underwear and slips, making them into modern day pieces that the modern woman would wear. To include language into my pieces I will be screen printing onto lace and ribbon and weaving and embroidering it into my pieces. I have experimented with this by creating my own patterned pieces through weaving paper together. I do really enjoy weaving as i get to create my own patterns, rather than using one that has already been created. I want to play around with this idea more throughout my project and my illustrations.
