Developing and Experimenting...

I wanted to test different ways I could have positioned and placed the twists if I was to start producing my final outcome. And these are the ideas I came up with. 


This one, I really liked because of the way I could transfer the idea from my sketchbook's first developed design into a neck/top piece. 


This one in particular was more than a Neck piece and it was actually inspired by one of the body adornment pictures I found on Pinterest (see below) 


What I took from this picture is the way the braids itself go around her neck and freely hang down from her neck. 


This one is very similar to the one at the top and I really like it because I like the way the braids crawl up the breast and create a shape. And really that's what real African braids do, when they are braided on someone's hair and the braids fall down on the chest they form a shape of their own freely.
