Coin and Card Flex Frame

Most people thought that flex frame purse is not user friendly, initially I did haha but after using it a few more time the flex frame become more (FLEXIBLE) and it is a very convenient little purse in your handbag or even a large tote bag

3 years back my girl friend Jessica gave me a little gift from her holiday, it was a flex frame purse with purple leopard print fabric, I was wondering what can I put in this purse as it was so small, but it was not wasted, I use it to put my ipod nano player which I always listen during my journey to my office, it was so useful and I really love it!!!

One day my little purple leopard print flex frame come into my mind and I decided to design my own flex frame purse and it was slightly wider and longer :) each design come in 2 pieces and they are I and selling them my Esty shop.. Do drop by and have a look :D

My Designs Branding

It had been so many years after all my sewing and little handmade crafts I had did not really try to sell any of my sewing craft works.. So, one night at home I was surfing beside my hubby and he gave me a brand name inspiration "Gupoo" (translate in English is Frog from Hokkien) sounds funny but nevertheless unique :D

I created a Facebook page for this little brand, still thinking of what I should design for the coming spring and summer season.. haha sound so haute couture, but they are just simple designs by me.

How to Make a Fashion Design Portfolio

Step 1 : Get something to hold and organize the work. This can be a variety if things. If you are young and starting out, a binder with page inserts works well. It may be best to spend the money on a nice large portfolio or presentation folder from a craft store or office supply store.

Step 2 : Collect samples of your best work, and begin to organize or group them together by collection. If you have multiple collections to display, you may include a few samples of inspiration for the design. This may be a painting of a flower, a song or the texture of a rusted piece of metal.

Step 3 : Include your sketches. These should be large, colored final sketches of the design. This shows your original intentions with the design. If there is room, you may even include small preliminary sketches that show the development of your design.

Step 4 : Include fabric swatches. These are small pieces of fabric that show what you would make the designs out of, or what you intend to make the designs out of. They may be small squares, but have enough of the fabric to show the texture or pattern well. Some fabric stores may give free or sell swatches, or you may have to buy a small amount of fabric.

Step 5 : Include finished photos of the fashion design in your portfolio if you have some. Anything that you actually make should be photographed while someone is wearing it. The photo should also be in color and large enough to show detail.

Step 6 : Put the work in a logical order. Think about the emotions or feelings that each photo or design evokes when you look at it. Consider each one and whether they flow in the order of a sort of story.

Step 7 : Go digital. With the technology of today, many places prefer a digital copy burnt to disc. If you apply to colleges or jobs far away, the only source of contact may be through email and over phone. Scan all images and sketches, and creatively place them in order to be viewed easily. This can be very simple or get very complicated.
