Addington High School presents…

30-01-2008   


After researching different carnivals the students agreed that popular and recurring themes around the world are Four Seasons.  They then found a variety of images of different seasons and selected different aspects to incorporate into their costume.

The colours, shapes and textures of the costumes reflect the different seasons and how people feel.  They then worked together to produce a range of costume that echo different emotions from each of the four seasons.

Fairchildes Primary School

 The year 5 students at Fairchildes were extremely motivated by our chosen theme The Tropical Rain Forest.  During the October half term holiday the children researched the theme and came to school prepared with super ideas and a huge amount of enthusiasm.  Working from their designs we focused on the characteristics of each animal.  Finally, we added as much sparkle, glitter and shine to each headdress so they would look stunning under the stage lights.

Fashion Show theme: Mexican ‘Day of Dead’

Synopsis on theme:

 Some may think that the Mexican ‘Day of the Dead’ is a rather morbid theme but far from it.  It is a festival that celebrates the lives of loved ones who have passed away, in a joyous and optimistic way.  Relatives lay trials of marigold flowers to private alters in homes so that the souls of their loves ones can find their way home for a feast of amazing food and drink and a party full of music and joy.  The Mexican ‘Day of the Dead’ festival and national holiday takes place at the end of October to the beginning of November and is one of the most colourful and kitsch festivals that there is.  Because of this, it lends itself very well to the overall theme for this Fashion Show: CARNIVAL.

Edenham High School

 

 As part of the run up to the beginning coursework, we asked out Yr 10 students to do a Design and Make project to link in with the Carinival Catwalk Show.

 

Taking ‘Carnivals’ as our theme, we researched costumes from street parades all over the world and based our design ideas on a college of Caribbean, Latin American and European approaches to this wonderful festival style.

 

The students were given the same basic skirt or shorts pattern to adapt and decorate to the full extent of their creativity.  Our models are from year 8 and have devised and choreographed the show themselves.

 Our project for this term was to create an outfit with our partner for a carnival fashion show at Addington High School.  Our theme was the ‘beauties of nature’ and we have used colours that are natural and ones that we see in tropical places.  Our outfits imitate ones that we see in real carnivals and have been inspired by the arrangements of colours of nature such as flowers, butterflies, the sea, the sun, cliffs, insects and animals.  We hope you enjoy the show.

 Our theme for the fashion show is ‘Harajuka’.  This theme originated in Japan and has spread across many countries all over the world today.  The look is based around the Japanese youth, style and fashion, whereby teens turn the different styles of clothing such as hip hop, punk, gothic, etc into something more wild, extravagant and attention grabbing.

 

The Harajuka style has been brought to may peoples attention by the American singer Gwen Stefani as she usually uses ‘harajuka girls’ as her backup dancers.  All the models are wearing outfits that they have designed and made themselves.
