Marc Jacobs Product Range

These are my final product range illustrations and flats. To make the illustrations I first did a drawing of the figure and the product, I then scanned this in and drew around the image on Illustrator. I then added colour and a simulated brush stroke.

*The empty spaces on the pages will have fabric swatches attached.

'Concealed' Mood Board

After putting our individual mood board's together, this is the final group mood board we created. We came up with the concept of 'Concealed'. A lot of the images we had seemed to focus on either nature, or a man-made object concealing something.

Application of Design

For our latest module we have to design a new product range for the A/W 13/14 season. The range has to be made as if it were for Marc Jacobs, I wouldn't have chosen this brand myself, but as this is a group module, and there were few designers to choose from, I had little say. 

Our range is going to be for a trend (I dislike designing for trends, it seems a little bit too premeditated and preachy) entitled 'Sublime'. According to WGSN this is going to be a trend based on 'an ethereal feeling' with 'subtle undertones'. 

This is the moodboard I have created based on what WGSN describes 'Sublime' as - I've gathered various images which I think convey the tones and palette of the trend. Hopefully once I actually start designing I will be able to put a little bit of my own stamp on the work - so far it all feels a little bit too prescribed by what the 'trend' dictates.
