The Lacoste Collection

The Lacoste Collection
While studying abroad in the south of France during my first quarter of Junior year, I created a collection of patterns that were inspired by my surroundings. First, I collected flowers that called out to me and created watercolor color schemes from them, and then painted small 5" by 5" coordinate paintings that I scanned and turned into repeats through Adobe Photoshop. Next step was to vectorize the images through Adobe Illustrator and create coordinated colors that tied the collection together. I finished the collection by texture mapping some of the final pieces from the collection onto clothing.
