PRIMARY RESEARCH... Is any research that you gathered from your own personal encounter. If you go to a city and take pictures of the buildings, this is Primary Research. If you use an internet stock photo of the buildings from this city, this is Secondary Research - and you don’t own the copy right. All Secondary Research images need to be fully referenced (see P12), but if you have taken the original photo, you own the copyright. It’s realy important that you are taking photos of interesting objects or textures all the time, to build your own reference library. Common useful artefacts are flowers, graffiti, cityscapes, water, natural forms, textural surfaces, interiors - the list is endless. Keep images in subcatagories for future reference. If you take an image of sculpture / garments / posters / shop windows, you may own the copyright to the photograph, but you must credit the artist. Primary images will give your concept boards individuality; a good mix of primary and secondary images creates interest that reflects your creative identity. In fashion, it is difficult to get primary catwalk images, so we have to use these in combination with our own primary imagery. Just remember to credit the images you use and add them to your reference page. Other Secondary Research includes: Books, Films, Pinterest, Magazines and Web documents.

REFERENCING Referencing is an essential part of your academic journey. You need to reference where you have found texts, images or video clips. It is essential that you know the designers or artists responsible for images you use on concept boards. Generally it is correct to credit the imagery and compile an appendix to be handed in, along side a unit portfolio, that fully references all secondary research sources. This is important as its possible to have your work disqualified or be accused of plagerism if your work isn’t properly referenced. Search the ‘Student Handbook’ on the portal for the rules about plagerism. Referencing is essential for all research and the best way to keep track is to compile a list of hyperlinks or book references as you work, on a seperate page or embeded within the texts. It is very difficult to find the links retrospectively. Susan Taylor is your librarian, who will be able to help you with referencing problems. Contact her at:

DEVELOPING YOUR WORK Developing designs is a form of evolution; you might start with one idea, but you need to play around with it, referencing your research to arrive at the final design you will create as a garment. This page of designs by Emma Jane Lord (Artsthread) show how she has considered a number of different neckline treatments before making her garment. Designers need to be able to consider a range of options before selecting the one that is the most creative & appropriate for their needs. Part of this journey will be explored by sketching out your ideas, but other skills such as sampling, modelling on the stand, pattern cutting and their subsequent developments are all part of the process. When developing your ideas consider what you could do to improve the aesthetics and functionality of your ideas and how these interpret your concept. Your lecturers will help you with this decision making process via crits and tutorials. Emma-Jane Lord
