For this Garment, I initially wanted to deconstruct a blazer to see it as a flat pattern to get a better understanding on how/what a blazer should be like, and how I could manipulate or adapt my own patterns - hoping to create a suit jacket from scratch in the future. I wanted to also focus on how the construction is made to be, I felt like deconstructing. experimenting, and trial and erroring, helped me a little to get that better understanding regarding construction.
From the flat pieces I could clearly see how the patterns were cute, and stitched onto. I was thinking of using these flat pieces to create/make my own pattern - Unfortunately it wasn't resolved in the end.
My other ideas was trying to create a collage or layers from the scrap fabric/deconstruction and integrating two other blazers - which acted as sleeves attached to the armholes. I'm not sure how I feel with how I finished this garment. I feel as if this whole process was for me to discover, and learn more about the construction of the suit jacket through experimenting and deconstructing this garment.
