My Design Brief: To create a race wear outfit, made from woven wool, fit to win the
Myer Fashions in the Field at the Sydney Autumn Carnival.
After reviewing the criteria for the Australian Wool Awards as well as the criteria for the
Fashions in the Field at the Golden Slipper Festival 2010, I wanted to create an outfit
that epitomises style, sophistication, originality and elegance. I wanted to design a
fashionable cutting edge dress with a jacket so it is appropriate for autumn racing as
well as a wool or felt hat (straw hats are not appropriate for autumn racing), gloves and
stockings that all tie in with the theme of the design.
a direction to where I am going.
