Year 5 and 6 Fashion Workshop

I created a presentation titled "fashion can be made out of anything" with short slides displaying wacky and inventive fashion garments created with everyday objects from food to newspapers.

The children remained focussed through the quick presentation and it gave them ideas to create their own designs. We cut out t-shirt, skirts, dresses and trouser silhouettes and took into the classroom lots of everyday objects for them to stick onto the cardboard silhouettes. They also have a fashion show at the end of term which many of the children told me the workshop had given them ideas for.

These images show some of the children's work. Each piece was very inventive and unique.
