n Outfit One For all 4 of my outfits I took inspiration from Marc Jacobs
For outfit one I took inspiration from the two outfits.
I took inspiration from the collar to the right and created my own version.
I also took inspiration from the stripes. It seems that Marc Jacobs has created his own stripes by using different panels. I have too tried to create the same effect.
I have also used similar colours on my own garments

I have also taken the general shape and style of the coat by extended it and turned it into a cape instead of a coat.
For this second outfit I have taken a lot of inspiration from this one coat.
I have done a similar collar on my own design but a lot
smaller and more circular

Outfit Three
For this garment I have taken inspiration from both of these.
For the jumpsuit I have taken ideas from the dress but adapted it into my own idea and designed a jumpsuit. I have used a similar colour on my own design but done it sleeveless.
I have also designed a jacket similar to this coat except I have made it shorter,
collarless and button-less.

For my final design I took inspiration from the stripes and colours on this garment.
However I decided to use a bright yellow instead of the creamy
brown colour. I wanted to use bright colours to try and make my
collection stand out.
The technique Marc Jacobs has used for his stripes is what I intend on doing when I make stripes up. My sewing different coloured panels together you can create you own fabrics.
I would hope that my final product would be as well made up and the
stripes will match as well as this Marc Jacobs collection.
