Selecting fabric for dress

I chose a Denim material based on the biker theme and chose a black colour due to the groups decision of using blacks, chromes, greys only to represent our theme for the mini collection. I did buy a faux leather but was unsure whether to use it or not in my final design as this would deviate away from my initial design. I sourced the fabric from a Haberdashery in Portsmouth called 'Fabric' I chose this establishment to buy my material as when visiting the area came across the shop and found the fabric on the off chance. I decided it was the right sort of denim for my design and it was being sold at a fair price
