Visual Merchandising Job! (Freelance Work)

This is a picture of a small boutique that I merchandised. I didn't have much to work with, but the little odds and ends the store owner had. This space also serves as a hair salon in the back area. I tried to keep everything balanced and remove all negative space. There isn't a lot of artwork on the walls, because the store owner wanted to hang them herself. But other than that everything else was done by me.

MoodBoards

I am a Fashion Merchandising Major. While obtaining my Bachlor's of Science at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Va, I have done many different MoodBoards. Here are a few from oldest to newest.

As you can see my work is improving the more I do these things.

Trending Denim (Spring/Summer 2013)

According to fashion forecasting firm Dynamic Denim, Spring/Summer 2013 will be a season full of variety in denim. Not only will companies give great variety in denim choices, but they will also be using eco-friendly technology to produce these items.

Denim Trends:
1. Prints

• Scenery
• Floral
• Animal
• Stripes
• Polka dots
• Geometric shapes

2. Color

• Vintage color
• Saturated tones
• Vivid intense colors (burnt orange, dark red, rich turquoise)
• There will be less indigo tones used

3. Silhouette

• Skinny jeans will still be the largest trending silhouette.
• Wide-leg jeans (larger, oversized, heavier looking denim)
• Mid-rise waist lines

4. Technology

• Laser print- a large laser machine burns different print and patterns into denim.
• Indiogless- companies will use less indigo dye and fewer chemicals to produce demon.
• Eco-pockets- one company (will give exact name later) will take all left over scarps of fabric from their factory and use it to make the lining of the pockets for demon jeans.
