Fads in Fashion

If you could measure success of a blog by people sharing resources with me that I can then pass on to share with others, then I believe I may have made it. I am now overwhelmed with the support of my colleagues and the willingness to share and be part of this online community. 

I have decided that this blog be dedicated as a sharing space and don't be fooled by the title its about more than just fashion.

The Next Black (The future of clothing)
 
 Thanks to Neville Meyers my colleague in the south Island who came across this amazing resource.

There are particular sections of this very long but informative film that particularly piqued my interest. Biocouture - Growing fabric.... and wearable technology to monitor sports performance of athletes.

For those die-hard fashionista's out there, here is an inspiring video that reflects on 100 years of fashion.

New Zealand's own 'Smith & Caughey's queen street store got together three top designers to produce a window display on edible coture. If you looking for relevance and engagement of a context for your students, then look at this.

Don't forget this coming week is more than the begining of the school holidays but also wellington is hosting our annual WOW (World of Wearable arts) show.  Have a look at 2014 highlights and be inspired.
