Royal Decadence

Time to get back into the blogging game
so lets jump right into it.

I already know who i want to base my final garment on, but obviously i have a sketchbook to fill so why not start by researching about British Royalty since afterall, i am british.
Known for Ascot / Princess Diana / Doulton / Wedgwood / Buckingham Palace etc....the list goes on.

The first part of this project began just before we broke up for the summer holidays - the college trip to Kensington Palace where there was an exhibition called "Enchanted Princess" if i remember correctly or "Enchanted Palace" something along them lines...
Anyway this composed of different rooms devoted to different princesses and some if not all became queens.
this was took in the room of royal sorrows along with a story about a princess who would catch her tears in glass jears and the significance of them evaporating would be that her sorrow would evaporate (dissapear ) too. There was also the Dress Of Tears by Aminaka Wilmont:
It's funny because while i was at this exhibition i never noticed the beauty of this garment and how relevant and similar it is too my own thoughts for my version of this royal brief.
In all this was a good starting base for this project - i didn't find much else which inspired me because i'm not fully interested in British History to be honest, but it's great sketchbook filler!
