Apologies for the late posts but as you will see I have been very busy!
First of these is my delayed post about a research and reflection tutorial, so basically a tutor waded through my blog!
I believe I have done a LOT of work around the 'admin' side of my course but my tutor seemed to think otherwise. His opinion was not of the volume but of the content, as he thinks that I am looking too much at the aesthetic side of the 1920s. This is fair enough for someone who is not very focused on producing an outcome which is purely for aesthetic reasons, as he is very product design - led, his view was that I should look at the poverty concerned with the 1920s and the ethics of women wearing high heels.
I reached a point in our debate about the ethics where I decided I could not be bothered to carry on explaining that I didn't want to look at poverty as it would serve absolutely no benefit to me, as I am trying to create a piece which is nostalgic of an uplifting aspect of the past, and that I, as a young woman, feel no pressure from men, in a sexist way, to wear high heels.
The shoes I want to create would make me feel very feminine, as well as, hopefully, paying tribute to a beautiful way of life, which is very inspiring to me.
