Oooo, the top of that first dress is very interesting!
Makes me think of cables or wiring of a robot that is being molded and confined with the silver metal clamps.
I am very excited to see the uncolored one!
I like the swirls contrasting with the straight lines.

Okay, so here are some things I am working on.
Kinda rough but they still convey that basic ideas.
All criticism is welcome, I would just love some candid responses.

i love the second to last outfit with the draped batwing-esque sleeves, and the contrast with the super-structured pencil skirt. the draping/pattern on the skirt of the last one is very pretty but i feel like the collar isn't a proper contrast, maybe work in some more folding but have it more angular than the skirt's folding?

devon i LOVE your kevlar corset shapes and all the shoes. very balenciaga meets maison martin margiela meets the inside of a macbook =)

Haha, Harry Potter? Alright lol!
I think I would use a lightweight jersey for the top.
Not very lux but everything I make has a sportswear background.
The short is actually meant to be utilized in sports like snowboarding where roominess is needed around the top and the bottom half needs to be close to the leg so it doesn't get caught on something of get in the way which I find happens with baggy legs.

hey guys...
i been working really hard on new silhouettes and ideas!!
i was so impressed with this design I HAD TO POST lol...
i would nominate the jacket on the left to represent what this collection is about.
the lined parts are kevlar
and the rest of the coat is patent~lined with green silk
B&W version (notice the other jacket)


and heres the colored version deconstructed with the skinny leg business pants (they are light black with silver over them) and a basic tee from this collection. all the metal is removable.

your designs is always amazing devon, there's only 1 single problem with it though...
u're not a fashion designer are u? coz all your designs missing important seam lines and darts, which is very important @_@ those clothes could nvr looks like that w/o all the seamlines and darts or style lines. anyway its just my opinion your designs are great
