| Background slide for NEBULA Virgo constellation pattern is mapped out over NASA's Hubble Space Telescope's image of the Eagle Nebula, a star–producing gas column that stretches over three–trillion miles long. |

| Background slide for NATURE (ID) Fashion illustration for the ID concept, inspired by the dualities present in human nature. The ID is the dark, inaccessible part of the personality that impulsively strives to satisfy basic wants & needs with no judgments of value, good or evil, nor morality — completely uninhibited. |

Blog 8 | Sarah and Nina Background Slides
This background is the Northern lights that will be used for our hand rendered dress background. The shapes that the lights make relate to the bottom "shredded" part of our dress along with the colors. The lights are breaking out of the darkness just like how our woman is being liberated through the dress.
This background is a city scape for our Arial dress. It has clean lines and is in black and white like our dress will be. It is symmetrical just like our dress as well

Memories Never Fade
For this dress we want to use an image that is a scattered arrangement of letters like the image above. If this idea is approved I will take a picture of my own letters to avoid copyright issues.

Penny Dress Concept: For this slide we wanted to show our concept in a simple and straight to the point way. This was to drive home the point that our government produces the penny at a more expensive cost that it is actually worth. I thought this image was fitting because it shows a pile of pennies sitting there all alone, just like they would sit in someones penny jar collecting dust.
I wish I had her legs dress: We chose to create a simple slide that took our idea about envy/jealousy a bit further. We wanted to include thoughts that many woman have on a day to day basis that we decided not to include on the dress, because it was looking to busy and difficult to read from the runway. We hope that the slide does not distract, but ads to our concept of taking internal thoughts and bringing them to the surface.

Project 1:
The Dirty War (Guerra Sucia) was a period of state-sponsored violence in Argentina from 1976 until 1983, which was carried out primarily by Jorge Rafael Videla's military dictatorship as a part of Operation Condor; the acts of repression, torture, and assassinations continued until the return to civilian rule in 1983.
Estimates for the number of people who were killed or "disappeared" range from 9,000 to 30,000.
Videla was prosecuted for large-scale human rights abuses and crimes against humanity that took place under his rule, including kidnappings or forced disappearance, widespread torture and extrajudicial murder of activists, political opponents (either real, suspected or alleged) as well as their families, at secret concentration camps.
During his trial, which ended on 22 Dec 2010, Videla took full responsibility for his army's actions during his rule, saying, "I accept the responsibility as the highest military authority during the internal war. My subordinates followed my orders.” Videla was found GUILTY and sentenced to life in prison. He now is 86 years old.

Project 2:
Connie was Daddy’s girl, she was his shining star, and then she dreamt of traveling to Paris and had dreams. Today, her life is confined under the Hawthorne Bridge, struggling every day just to make it through the day. And the cold and the wet weather is the least of her worries. In recent years, there has been a surge in unprovoked attacks against the homeless to the point that a number of states are considering legislation to treat such assaults as hate crimes. Men, and in most cases teenage boys, punch, kick, rape, shoot paintballs and bullets, or set afire people living on the streets, frequently killing them, simply for the sport of it, their victims all but invisible to society. And all Connie has to protect herself, a mere tarp and few blankets.
