The Female Anatomy...

Breasts exposed...

Sample review made it clear, i need to alter my design... When making my sample Swimwear i knew that i would be having difficulty in covering the breast region. I was proven correct when the poor model had to hold herself in, due to the fabric being to heavy and the gathers falling in the opposite direction to what i had intended. After much back and forth feedback and comments, i have gone away and re- sketched my design altering it, to hopefully achieve a more practical outcome. My concept is Nudity Nightmare but i did not wish to expose the whole breast in what seemed like a vulgar attempt. I was picturing more coverage with slight hints of exposure, particularly from a side viewpoint.When fitting the model it obviously became clear that most women have breasts, unlike myself, so as a designer it was narrow minded to assume no support was needed in this area SO as suggested by Dean and Gillian I will be adding to my design, creating some form of support, which i am Brainstorming. However to give you an idea, the direction I am heading toward would be some what of a sheer cup, subtle, therefore it will not take away from the essence of Nudity Nightmare but it will give support and comfort to the models who will be wearing the garment. So to achieve the most successful end result possible, i am now in the process of re- constructing my patterns, by adding the gather into the jacket- giving leverage and support so it wont have the freedom to fall and over- expose. Wish me Luck- and what is the need for Breasts in Fashion, really?
