Due to focusing on the 50's for my context I know I want a full skirt so I am focusing mainly on the top half of the garment. An aspect I tried to incorporate in some of the designs is layering. I noticed that on a lot of Geisha outfits, there are belts that are layered that cover most of the waist. I really like this idea as it appears a modern feature but is recognised as something from Japanese style. I want to experiment with layering more than unusual structures and cuttings as I want the style to be obvious of America in the 50's. If an usual style is used then the pattern may not be the centre of attention and that is the element of this project that I want to achieve my best in and be the most interesting out of all the different fashion features.
