Printed using a Mimaki digital textile printer, the surface designs from this collection were printed on both flax (featured in this design) and stretch silk textiles. This digital textile design collection was inspired by photography of Thomas Marent and created using Lectra Kaledo software. Garment patterns were drafted by hand, and the finished garments were assembled using industrial sewing techniques. The design was printed using a Mimaki printer and set using a hot-pressure steamer. Appropriately, exotic birds inspired the textile design and were manipulated using Adobe Photoshop and Lectra Modaris. This outfit is tailored to style bloggers turned celebrities who preen for the camera outside fashion events in an effort to promote their personal brand of fashion.

Peacocking Collaborators: Diane Sparks Techniques: Computer graphics, digital printing, creative patternmaking Award: Fashion Supplies Innovative Design Award 2nd Place at International Textiles and Apparel in 2013 When dry, the seams were reinforced by hand. The jacket was garment dyed using acid dyes in a warm bath. One inch seam allowances were left uncovered as they were necessary for assembly. Felt tabs, were applied using a lockstitch industrial sewing machine and built up row by row until the surface areas of the pattern pieces were completely covered. The re-purposed industrial felt tabs utilized in this garment challenge the senses of both the wearer and observer, and encourage interactions between them. Textural and tactile, the surface of the jacket is dimensional, offering play in the movement of each cilia-like felt tab.
