This is my final piece of which i did a tophat. I used the words "WEARING TYPOGRAPHY" in a block style writing which i cut from cardboard and used as the main cylinder of the hat, i then painted it matt black and finished it with white outline to make it stand out better!! i really enjoyed doing this project and i feel that my final idea turned out really well and protrays the message of typography in clothes whilst also answering the brief we were set!!


An idea that i messed around with and then made a mock up sample to see how it would turn out. I choose to do a shoe of some kind using the words "WEARING TYPOGRAPHY" for the sides. i think it turned out really well however i did not use it as my final idea.

great idea for a bag and would prove just as effective at carrying items as any other bag. the incorporation of typography allows to bag to be very fashionable and very appealing to the eye.

great ideas of incorporating typography into fashion. 2 very different approaches taken in that one is simplistic with the other being very sophisticated and complicated. however both differ in complexity they still provide equal appeal to the viewer.



examples of wearing type in a different way!! this is the alphabet with people spelling out the letters by which way they move and manipulate the fabric they are wearing. This is very attractive to look at and shows that the person has be very innovative!!


some ideas for the new brief of "WEARING TYPE." above is examples of typography used in fashion. The type is used to form part of the outfit and this makes it stand out and make a bold statement. Very effective!!
