Transformation Drafting
Final assignment for class PROD 402 (Applications of Costuming)
Assignment Brief: Pattern a garment (using either draping or drafting techniques) from scratch and fully fabricate whichever concept or design you choose.
I fabricated a jacket inspired by the character Max Jaegerman from the online musical Nerdy Prudes Must Die by Team Starkid. In the show he wears a similar jacket, but I decided to make it a quick-change garment for increased technical difficulty and I added my own design elements and details from the show (including a different back design and additional text down the front)
