4. The Wide Leg Pant
For this specific project I was tasked with cre-
ating an original design for an item that relates
to each individuals major and interests. Given
that I am a merchandising management major, I
really wanted to focus on finding a garment that
reflected the current trends in fashion. I decided
to create a mock-up based off of these reference
images I found when I was researching inspira-
tion for this project. The wide leg, free-flowing
pant and floral pattern styles are trends that have
grown in the past few years and are showing up
more and more in retail and fashion. This project
required proficiency with Adobe InDesign as well
as Photoshop. To create a mock-up of a garment, I
needed to be able to create a pattern from scratch,
trace an outline of what the object would look like
and then be able to apply a pattern or color to the
overall design. To the right is an example of what I
worked with when designing the final product.

5. These were the patterns created for the wide
leg pants. The goal for creating these patterns
was to incorporate a fun, playful element while
keeping it simple. The green hues vary from
light to dark and go best with spring attire. The
dark black and charcoal color/patterns was also
considered for a more neutral look and one that
could be worn easily during any season. The col-
or swatches were created to help figure out what
colors would look best with the pattern I had in
mind for the pants.
The process of the project

6. The platform ankle-high boots
Inspiration for
the boots
Illustrator Photoshop
The combat boot original mock-up was created
using Illustrator. Just like the pants project, the
first step was to trace a photo of reference and
then start to design what you wanted the product
to look like. I found my inspiration for this project
on Pinterest when browsing popular shoe styles.
I wanted to create something vibrant and unique.
The yellow, pink and black striped pattern was
designed to add a pop of color to whatever prod-
uct the pattern would be added too. I created the
striped pattern by forming three skinny rectangu-
lar shapes and then grouping them together side
by side. Then, I filled the boxes with color and cre-
ated a repeating pattern within the boxes so that
the design could be easily added to any tracing.
This was how I completed the first model design in
Illustrator.
The final design for the ankle-high boots was
developed using Photoshop. You can clearly tell the
difference between the ones created in Illustrator
vs the shoes finished using advanced features in
Photoshop. I wanted to focus on making the shoe
more realistic and defined. I used tools such as the
blending tool, shading tool and sponge tool to ac-
complish the realistic look. Specifically, the dodge
tool was helpful in controlling the exposure and
lighting of the image itself. The dodge tool is what
helped create a more defined version of the boots.
You can see on the design where the lighter por-
tions are and where the darker more shaded areas
are. Another great thing about using Photoshop
was the ability to go in and clean up the outline of
the shoe and pattern. I spent a decent amount of
time trying to make the outline more smooth and
visually appealing.
