This is an original rough sketch of the background location for Liberty Universitie's first official fashion show. I was the chairman for the interior design group, tasked with designing a backdrop and theme for the fashion show. Our concept was, "Fresh In The City" for the very reason that spring was approaching, and the colors that year were fresh and colorful. We also included some clean city scape photographs that we used for decoration.
The sign that reads Fresh In The City was not posted on the wall as you see here, rather, it was hung right above head level in between the other two partitions. This gave the models a grand entrance, introducing them to the audience. The pools of fabric were a beautiful sheer aqua that draped across the partition and pooled onto the floor. I wish I could say that everything was perfect and went according to plan, however, it did not. The fabric was very difficult to hang in the room. The signs also proved to be very arduous. Nonetheless, we accomplished our task by compromising some of our original ideas.
I learned a great deal from this experience. One important lesson, was learning that you need to know for sure how you are going to join things well in advance of the final project.
