Last night in The Morrison Hotel 17 became 8 in our student design semi final fashion show.
The final eight student design pieces will be show on the catwalk Tuesday in the DIT Fashion Show sponsored by Alfa Romeo.
The top 17 designers were from colleges all over the country. We were all seriously impressed with their take on our theme this year, "Romeo & Guiliettea - A Bad Romance".
We had the pleasure of having Make Up Forever and The Art Team involved in this semi final fashion show, they of course did marvellous job!
Now drum roll everyone, the eight designers going onto the final are:
1. Mona Atkinson from NCAD whose outfit was modelled by Rachel Kenny. Mona's design is an attempt to convey the essence of Sid and Nancy's romance and the essence of the punk movement. She used a vibrant shade of cerise pink to represent the bold, unapologetic nature of punk and utilised leather and chunky metal zips to give everything a hard edge.
2. Yvette Byrne from Griffith College whose outfit is modelled by Isabella Castillo. Yvette's design is inspired by the Duchess of Devonshire and made using modern versions of 18th century style fabrics, both Brocade, French hand beaded lace and satin suede. Yvette says, "The look is beautiful to the eye but the beauty of the outfit is a disguise to the restraints for the wearer. The corset-like high waist represents the restraint of fashion at the time, while the many panels describe her complicated dramatic life."
3. Anne Carey from NCAD whose design is based on roses - a classic symbol of love - and modelled by Rachel Keane. The dress is made of red silk fabrics which, according to Anne, reflect the delicate, remarkable nature of love while the hand sewn roses replicate the source and echo the beauty of romance.
4. Aoife Conroy is from NCAD and her outfit is modelled by Vita Shevnyuk. Aoife was inspired by the Lady Gaga music video 'Bad Romance'. She created a dress using power net mesh, crinoline, Cather, binding and shuttlecocks. Aoife wanted a design that mirrored the music video and contrasted the feminine silhouette with sharp, structured details, but had a quirky twist due to the fabrics used.
5. Stephanie Kenny LSAD whose outfit is modelled by Candy Inoma. Stephanie's look took inspiration from the passionate love story of King Henry the 8th and his second wife, Anne Boleyn. Stephanie used the physical appearance of Anne Boleyn as a thread throughout the undergarment. Her long black hair, jewelled black eyes and long neck are all elements emphasised within this look. Inspired by the voluminous silhouette of the 16th century, she has created a modern and contemporary look.
6. Umit Kutluk from Grafton Academy whose design is inspired by Oscar Wilde's poem "We are made one with what we touch and see" and modelled by Anna Flynn. Umit says "I have used red beading to evoke the image of connecting blood veins to the heart and the fabric is natural silk chiffon, so this connects with nature which is a string theme in the poem."
7. Jenny Massey is from Grafton Academy whose outfit is modelled by Jennifer Murray. Jenny's dress has a bandage style wrapping with parts of the panels breaking out into wing-like features to represent their freedom. She included volumes of folded fabric to give a hidden feeling and padlocks to keep the bursting hidden realm locked away.
8. Amy McAlinden is from Grafton Academy whose design "For the birds" is modelled by Jessica Pritzel. Her outfit is heavily embellished and the jacket has been embroidered with elastic to create a feathered effect, then hand beaded to achieve the exciting and detailed finish and the dress underneath has also been embellished by hand. "The silhouette of the dress imitates that of a bird, my chosen theme" according to Amy.
