INSPIRATION AND DESCRIPTION:
“My design inspiration for episode 6 of Mission Catwalk came directly from the fabrics. The challenge for this episode was based on upcycling looks from previous episodes. I ended up with a male denim jacket and forest green denim pants. I immediately went military! From the look provided, I was able to produce what is best described as a denim cap-sleeve sheath dress with peplum waistline. While very sleek and easy on the eyes, this dress has details at every viewpoint. From a bright yellow-lined peplum, exposed metal jacket zipper and delicate curves at the back, I gave my modern take on the traditional cap sleeve. Keeping the cut of this denim dress very feminine, I used the pant provided to create a military-inspired hat and a small clutch.”
