early start

I was determined to post again today, I have a meeting about a fashion show in a short while and am going to the clothes show in birmingham tomorrow. sounds good doesn't it? (except for the 6 am start and the midnight return).
anyway I have been thinking about clothes a bit recently, it used to be pretty much all I thought about a few years ago, how things change!
I am still as interested as ever but for others rather than myself. so this winter 'I will be mostly wearing' shades of grey and black.

I'm tired its late >> only just got in.

just got back from birmingham its very late & I am too tired to write anything sensible. but I did get some very nice shoes from these people jshoes whilst I was at the clothes show live.

clothes show live >> that's where I'll be all day

I have always remained interested in the fashion/textiles industry, even after all this time I probably still consider myself a textile/surface designer first.
each day I apply that way of working to teaching, as my roots are embedded in the design of things, especially things that cover areas of space, furnishing fabric or even clothes. the thought process is still with me after 25 years since leaving art school.

so tomorrow I will be at the clothes show live at the n.e.c. birmingham as part of a group taking students up from down here in cornwall. so it will be a long day with a stupidly early start.

I have been a few times over the years and always manage to find something new and positive as well as some stuff that surprises me. I will let you know what happens this time.
