Here are some dresses from award ceremonies what involve celebrities walking on the red carpet. I have selected these as I will be making a garment for a red carpet occasion and these few are very out of the ordinary which its how I want my garment to be.
Nicki Minaj wore this dress designed by Versace to the Grammy awards 2012. This is dress is relevant to my work as its like a fairytale tale Little Red Riding Hood's cape, and I will be making a dress inspired by Alice in Wonderland also a childhood story. I think this dress expresses her personality as its big, bold and stands out. I think Nicki is someone who wants to be noticed and in this dress and with the pope by her side she defiantly was noticed, I want the wearer of my garment to experience a transformation, to feel like they are in a fairy tale. for my garment I will experiment with different textile techniques and I think embroidery will be a main one.
Rihanna wore this dress designed by Jean Paul Gautlier to the Grammy awards in 2011, I like this dress because there is little left for the imagination. I picked this images as its like she is surrounded by rings of smoke similar to the Caterpillar in Alice in Wonderland as he blows smoke into rings.
When I look at this it is like I'm in a dream, this is something people don't normally wear.
I think Rihanna can pull this dress off as she is very confident about the way she looks and her body this is important for the designer if they are making a one-off garment.
It needs to fit the wearer's personality as much as their body this has helped me with my college work as my customer target must be someone who feels comfortable in the garment I will be making. This dress has made me think about doing a devore print on my garment because i like the effect it gives.
Lady Gaga wore a dress designed by Giorgio Armani to the Grammy awards in 2010. I like this dress as it is very 'in your face' just like other things Gaga wears. She is very futuristic, and she always stands out from the crowd - no doubt about it.
I like this dress as it reminds me of the top of a mushroom but at the same time it looks like the rings you get around planets. I know this garment has noting to do with Alice in wonderland but I like how it is constructed to look as if it is made of plastic, when i look at it i feel as if i have entered a new world from the future, this has inspired me to use plastic and other materials in my project work.

Beyonce Knowles wore a dress designed by Elie Saab to the Grammy awards in 2008. This dress links really well with my theme Alice in wonderland as the top of the dress looks very similar to mushrooms and its similar to some of my designs. I really like the use of colour and how the silver comes down in some parts, this has inspired me to let my print designs bleed and let the colour run. I think this is a really nice effective cascade of silver and blue. I also like how the top of the dress stands out (3D) I think I might make sculpted parts of my garment in 3D.
Rihanna wore a dress designed by Marchesa at the American music awards in 2009. I love the way the dress is very angular but looks feminine and delicate, its very box like similar to my designs based around the card men from the story Alice in Wonderland, I also like the laser cutting and how you can see through it, I would like to experiment with this and probably use this on my garment.
Kelly Osbourne wore a dress designed by Tadashi Shoji to the Grammy awards in 2011. I like this dress as it is very 'fluffy' it reminds me of flower petals, I like the idea of making it fluffy and soft this is relevant to my work because when I look at it it make me feel like I'm in a dream, I also really like the colour it fits well with my colour palette.
