I have been finding it very difficult to keep up with blogging, but i thought i will try again and update with everything I have been doing.

In week 2, in the morning session we went through 5 presentations, from a random selection.
In the afternoon we went off to do do some fabric researches. Went and vissited various fabris stores in central london.

Broadwick Silks


I liked this grey silk

The Silk Society


the texture of the chiffon oragnza is tuff but looks very soft.

Liberty


Most of the fabrics were printed which follows the trend.
