After managing to find several fashion photographers to work with on the project, Zak and I began looking for fashion designers that were going to be able to produce the garments we needed to be shot for the publication. To do this, we created a brief for the fashion design students around the university to see with our contact details attached for further information. The brief is quite similar to the information given in to the photographers but slightly tailored to the garment design side.
We posted these briefs around the university and mainly targeted the fashion studios. We spoke to the tutors in the fashion department and asked how else we could get our brief sent around. After that conversation we were given a time to be able to present in front of fashion level 6 and 5 to brief them in person and possibly get a better response then what the printed notices might. We also got the opportunity to send our open call out to all the fashion students over email through the universities admin department which we took.
We presented our brief in front of the fashion students with confidents and this had actually proven to be the best source of gaining collaborators for the project. After this, a few fashion designers got in touch with us that day via email regarding the project and sent us some images of their work, suggesting which theme they could possibly be suited under. Below is a few examples of some of the work that people sent us.
