Starlight Wishes

We settled on a title for the ensemble from Friday Fashion Club with Tat.  This recycled wearable art piece will be known to the world as "Starlight Wishes."

The Fashion Club crew finally determined a title for their work.  The outfit will be called "Starlight Wishes."  We felt the look of this design resembled a starry sky.  Starlight, star bright, first star I see tonight...
Celestial Cap
The cosmic theme of this design lead to the creation of this Celestial Cap.  Using stringers from 3-D printing projects, this cap resembles shooting stars and asteroids.  What was to be "Booked for the Ball" has transformed as the Queen of the Solar System.

With only 2 more design classes left, we have a LOT of work to accomplish before we call this piece complete.  Check back at the end of April to see the continued progress.

2018 Fashion Club Continues

Fashion Club with Tat met twice in February to continue working on their Recycled Runway Fashion Show design.  Winter Break meant no school for students, but we enlisted them in fashion design lessons.
Boys Busted out the Work
Tat's sons roamed the library during our class, but we needed more hands to complete tasks.  They wrangled friends and transformed a huge box of cardboard tabs in just ten minutes.  A stopwatch timed their session.  We strictly got ten free minutes, then had to pay them....  Sheesh!
Chop-Chop
Amelia was busy chopping up 3-D printing scraps into tiny mosaic sized pieces.  I was her helper and believe we killed a few pairs of scissors.

A little Help from our Friends
We even secured a little help from our friends....ok, it's Amelia's brother.
Jina is a Glue Gun Master
Jina continued gluing cardboard tabs to our skirt base.
Nestrelda Put her Gluing skills to Use
Whatever would we do without hot glue?!
Colorful Mosaic
Those 3-D printing scraps are being formed into a colorful mosaic covering the bodice of our design.  Progress was swift this month, but time is slipping away quickly.
A True "Insider" View
There are only 3 classes left for Fashion Club with Tat.  We're having fun and forcing kids to work in unusual ways.  Now it's time to choose a title for this ensemble.

Is she Booked for the Ball or a Younique Universe?  Give us your vote!

Check back in March to find the results of our Title brainstorm.
Thanks for visiting!
