London Trip

Yesterday we went on another London trip. The first exhibition we went to see was at Somerset House. I thought we were going to get the brief for our new project so I wasn't completely sure what, if anything I was meant to be looking out for. But this probably worked out well cause it meant I didn't have to put too much thought into it and just enjoy it for what it was.

When I first went round the exhibition I was surprised I didn't really like it. I didn't understand a lot of the pieces and couldn't appreciate it at all. So I decided to look at it again from end to start and the second time around I found a lot of stuff I liked and had a much better feel for the whole thing.

I really like this one, it reminds of some of the Tokyo fashion I've been researching for our group presentation on a fashion capital.

The exhibition was all very interactive, lots of things to touch and play with which made a nice change from the usual 'don't touch that'. There was only one collection of actual garments.

This one was my fav. It looks quite raw and almost like

you wouldn't want to touch it but in person the material

it was made out of looked very soft and delicate.

Not sure if that makes sense but I like the contrast.

That was the main thing we did in London, and I also took a picture of the chandelier in the V&A by Dale Chihuly for my black and white project. Even though its finished I included him and thought it would be nice to have a pic of his work I took myself.
