Design Development

I developed my initial design by taking more inspiration from a tailored dinner jacket. I sharpened the angles of the shoulder silhouette and shortened them in length to experiment with different shapes. I then added a dinner jacket inspired collar (with lapels) on to the back of the garment. I like the idea of lapels at the back, but they weren't as sharp as I wanted. The collar stand is now visible as a neck piece at the front. I will use red silk for the collar stand to tie in my original theme, lust.
