Today I went to Newlook to collect the clothes I had put behind for the photoshoot (Thursday).
I brought with me images taken from the internet of the Bratz dolls.
The idea was that I created characters which would narrate the way around the report.
I looked at the images for inspiration regarding makeup and styling.
I noticed that the lips on the Bratz dolls were the focal feature of the face, and the hair is styled - usually crimped or curled.
I chose three models: Hayley, Yasamin and Emily - each of these related to one of the Bratz dolls, either through ethnicity/skin tone, hair colouration or facial features.
When looking for clothes I selected those which were most in line with clothes the Bratz dolls would wear - it should be noted that these were not necessarily 'in trend' clothes, therefore I should look at charity shops and other locations for clothing.
In order to transform these models in to doll form I will experiment with using 'plastic wrap' a filter effect from the gallery in Photoshop. It should be noted that there are different intensities of these and I will experiment with which one creates the most 'artificial' effect.
The blog will be updated tomorrow once I have sifted through the outfits and decided which model will wear which items. I will post photographs if at all possible.
