Mini Challenge #1 - The Shading, The Shading Of It All!

For this mini challenge, our amazing ladies got out their sketchbooks and started throwing down the colours with their own extravagant concepts and designs! Let’s see how they did!

Analyse Thropic

🐍

Hisssssss, bitchesssss! You don’t need to speak Parseltongue to slither into this ssssstunning gown. Whether you’re going out to dance the mamba mambo or staying in and watching Monty Python, you’re sure to be the kingqueensnake. Unhinge your jaw to give some (copper)head, cuz girl, every anaconda do want some. You could accessorize with some snakeskin heels or a feather boa, and the design of the dress allows you to wear it with or without a (co)bra. A snake may have convinced Eve to commit the original sin, but it would be an even bigger sin to not wear this ssssickening look.

🐍

Lila: Well hello! Congratulations again for winning Charm School Cycle 3! Now, I am in awe of this look, really. I can see this being a statement piece at the Met Gala or something, and your communication is spot on with all of your labels being clear with what material is best suited to get your desired effects. It’s very interesting and your inspiration is really coming through. I’m gonna nit pick (because its tough to find a critique, really) and say your inspiration is coming through too strong maybe? Nevertheless, what a great start to this cycle! Great Job!

Gluttoni:

Letha: Well, Missssssss Thropic, that’s quite a dress you have there! Throughout Charm School you showed a strength for concepts and having a fully fleshed out idea, and it served you well then, and it has continued to serve you well with this design. The colors (you know I’m a sucker for green) and shapes make sense for the look, and the theme of it all is very strong. The amount of detail you included, in both the sketch as well as your notes, help make the look seem all more real, even if you haven’t sewn it yet. My one nitpick would be that the combination of the headpiece AND the ruff/collar might not play so well together in real life, as they might get in each other’s way. But other than that, a VERY strong first effort for your first mini challenge!

Toni: This isn’t Charm School any more and you came to show us that! Congrats on your win dear. I’m honestly in love with this concept. It has clear inspiration, and from what I can tell was very thought out. I love the idea of this King(Queen) Cobra inspired look because it’s such a  striking idea.I do worry that the colors may not all be the same tonne of green or gold and may be a stark clash for the others (the bottom of the skirt) But over all this is an amazing and Super strong concept that I am madly in love with. Keep up the good work going into this main!

Avana Noir

Hello Everyone! My name is Avana Noir and this is my design. I call this Pretty in Pink Anime Lolita Girl. My design for this challenge was based around cute Japanese/Anime Fashion. I got Inspiration from for top half of the dress from the Anime Modaka Magicka  (watch it if you haven’t) as well as basic Lolita Fashion, hence the bows and the arm sleeves. The wings also come from the Anime because in the anime they are  superheroes. The lower bottom(me) of the dress is inspired by the 1950’s pencil skirts but as well as a look by Alexander Mcqueen. Where he uses tool to make a dress look structured. I wanted to either make it look like if it was made by tool or cotton. So this is my design , Thank you very much!

Lila: Oh my god, I think it’s adorable you sign your concept when you finish it! Okay, I’m getting your inspiration, very Victoria’s Secret in the Harajuku District in Shibuya! I’m also getting a little bit of Diancie from Pokemon too. Shoes are such a tough thing to draw, but I wish you included them just so we could see how you communicated your design - if you draw like a flap and add a U shape into it, it looks a little bit like a court shoe! Good communication too, and I applaud you for using unconventional materials! Great Job!

Gluttoni:

Letha: This is such a cute look, Avana! I enjoy how much thought you put into all of the “extras”, because while the outfit itself isn’t a gown or showpiece, all of the elements make for a complete picture and “lewk” when they’re all together. I enjoy your notes on the materials, some of which are very unconventional. I do wish the wings made more of a statement, as they’re kind of meh in their current size/shape. I also wish for a bit more color? I know the Lolita style incorporates a lot of pastels, but I feel as if those more muted colors could be grounded with some accents in a bolder hue (making the bows a darker pink, for instance). Overall, strong work!

Toni: Ms. Noir! Okay I see you coming to play! I love this its very Japanese street fashion meets that one pink diamond pokemon. It’s something that I would never think to see youu in and that excites me because great things always come from stepping out side of your comfort zone. I do wish everything was a bit BIGGER, cause in drag sweetheart you’ve gotta be big and loud to be noticed. if you made the sleeve bigger, made the wings and the bow bigger so that you have this crazy mega lolita shape it would be everything. Good luck this week dear!

Daddie Dearest

My design is inspired by my favorite graphic artist, Hense (https://goo.gl/images/gV4R6b). Most of his work is in urban areas, so I decided design streetwear. The pants are made of pattern sublimated vinyl to keep their shape. It is high waisted with the ruffles at the top giving the model some shape. The pants are drop crotch, and they taper at the ankle to mimic joggers. The top is an asymmetrical poncho of sorts also made of vinyl. It is just short enough to show some under boob. The headpiece is representative of some of the extraneous lines in Hense's work. And finally, the back lines extending from the model's neck are made out of rusted metal rods to further drive home the urban feel of the look. Overall, I could see this being presented on Project Runway, and I'm happy that's the direction my design took.

Lila: I’m so intrigued by this look because it’s very much like the style of the art itself! I’m living for the streetwear-cross-avant garde and I’m really slain over how intriguing this design is! You can see the inspiration clearly and I love it! I hate to nitpick here, but I wish there was a little bit more labelling going on and potentially you could’ve had a seperate drawing to depict the back piece’s overall construction, but overall, Great job!

Gluttoni:

Letha: This is such a bold and graphic look, Daddie, I live. The shapes and the lines are intricate and structured and I love the colors. Pants can be hard to pull off in drag but I can see this really working as a high fashion, modern look. I will say I enjoy the outfit more than the headpiece/s themselves, but it’s still all very cool. This is a very strong first step forward in this competition and you should be proud of yourself! 

Toni: Daddie! Again this is another one that shook me because I didn’t expect this from you but its everything. I see the inspiration and I like it, giving me a little bit of street fashion which is what I think of when I think of you. I think this looks like a fashionable beetle! I don’t totally understand the addition of purple and red and it feels that those were just thrown in there because you didn’t want this to be super duocromoatic, so either change those colors or find a way to work them in better. Over all good work this week!

Dotte Com

Deep within the recesses of space, there’s a nebulous force of hope that’s delivered to you in the form of a bodacious badass blonde. You see, people think of stars and these delicate little twinkly lights. But they’re also large, fiery beings who you can’t even touch at all. Inspiration for this outfit was derived from the truth about these galactic beings and the subconscious dream to burn brilliantly in the midst of the darkest environments.

The voluminous hair and waist cape mimic the enormous mass found in stars, while the metallic golden shoulder piece and tiara emulate their absolute brilliance. The white and black elements contradictory and complimentary, a reminder that there will always be light amongst the darkness.

Lila: I am in awe of this look! The restrictive colour palette, the design and the motifs are really beautiful and I’m honestly super impressed with this overall design! I HATE to nitpick (only because its hard to nitpick) but I do wish the legs ended with some sort of heel, but it’s like what I expect from a fashion drawing, so great job here, miss Dotte!

Gluttoni:

Letha: This look really really captures what I think Dotte represents. It’s got attitude, volume, and color. I can see you performing in this and absolutely tearing up the stage. I do wish that the hair and the skirt fabric were a bit more different in tone, because they read very similar on paper (though most likely wouldn’t in real life), but your concept is still very clear and very strong. The thigh highs are also a nice touch, as they are still very you. Great job!

Toni: There is nothing I do not love about this!! not only did you give us a STUNNING look you also gave us character and reasoning for it which I love. I love that this shape is  powerful and strong while at the same time playful and fun, giving a superhero vibe to it.I do wish there were a few more indications such as it the skirt flowing or does it have the shape that you gave us in the picture on its own, but those are very small things that can be over looked and left up to artists intent. Overall I am amazed by this, keep it up!

Ebony Boss

My look is based around paint. I really wanted to have a clear concept that still stayed true to my design aesthetic. I drew a plunging neckline, off the shoulders leotard. It is paired with a clear vinyl skirt with paint blobs painted on. The shoes would complement the blue blobs. Also she would have a paint palette as a fascinator with a paint brush on top and matching paint brush earrings. I hope you enjoyed my design! MWAH!

Lila: I love this look, it’s really interesting and really fun! I like that there’s a seperate to this look, there’s an opportunity for a reveal with the skirt. You can tell you were really in your element here as clothing designing goes, however I have a few nitpicks. If you used a stilleto rather than a boot, it wouldn’t cut off the leg so sharp since we can see through the vinyl, and I can see the skirt having a very chiffon-mesh like fabric with appliques with small boning in the skirt to offer some sort of flair to the mermaid skirt. However, great job with this concept! I’m looking forward to seeing your work!

Gluttoni:

Letha: Hello, Ebony! This is a very cool look, and your design background is definitely showing! The silhouette itself is very interesting, and separates make a lot of sense for drag/performance. I’m not so sure on your choice of proposed materials, as vinyl might be quite difficult to have flow like this (not impossible, but easier with other fabrics). I would agree with Lila about the shoe, the skirt serves to emphasize the legs, so cutting them off in a boot like that would be a disservice. I enjoy the concept of the paint splatters and whole “artist” theme, but would personally enjoy to see more color used, if that’s what you’re going for. I really enjoy the ombré hair, but with so much green/blue on the look itself, I almost get a “paintball camo” kind of vibe instead of “artist”. Still, this is a very strong look, and you have certainly made a strong first impression with this mini challenge!

Toni: Hey babe! I love this! I think its fun and feminine as well as creative. I love the color scheme although I think one more color thrown in there to shake up the greens and blue would have added a lot. I like that you thought about a head piece and tied it in with the look. I worry about having paint splatter on vinyl because it may not look/drape how you like. It would have been better fitted on maybe a chiffon with satin appliques so that it has the flow that you’re looking for with this look. I am excited to see what you come up with next!

Giraffez Doris Buckel

I decided to look at some old drawings I had drawn during highschool for inspiration and went straight for the Very first dress I saw. Which was also the first picture, a dress I drew for prom. I updated it a bit to fit my new style from a poofy ball gown to an elegant sleek mermaid style with a simple tiara, and two bracelets one white and one pink because this bitch likes pink. I then colored the dress in normal rainbow fashion with pink at the end and chose to keep the bosom and last stripe white to emulate clouds.

Materials used: body is muslin the top and bottom remain white, the rest being dyed red, orange yellow, green, blue, purple and pink. The bottom being made of tulle in the same colors and the same order.

Lila: I love the inspiration behind your concept, really cute and a nice update to the one we saw from your highschool days! The spiralling technique was a better technique to go for so I’m really glad you went for that! Now, that being said, this is a tad basic for what we asked, and there’s a lack of clarity in your notes, as in we can’t really make out what you’ve wrote down. However, good job!

Gluttoni:

Letha: Hey, Giraffez! This is a cute design, and the story of where it came from is also very sweet. I like the design of the color-blocked rainbow, but I feel as if the colors are a bit muted (the white does help to set off the colors that are there, though). Some more accessories might also help the look (I feel like based on this neck line there should be some sort of necklace?). The silhouette, while basic, does say prom to me so it makes sense. Some more detail/notes on the design might have been helpful, but overall, good job!

Toni:Hello dear! Welcome to the cycle! I want to start by saying i love the idea of bright colors and how you reused your old coming out dress idea to make it into something new and exciting. I do feel that this is lacking and that you had free range to draw anything you wanted, you could have easily added more flair and shape to this and had fun with it. Good luck on the main challenge my love!

Klinker

Inspired by Fashion singers like Gaga, Bjork and Karol Conka. Made out of broken CDs

Lila: Hi Klinker! Welcome to TDR! Now, for starters, I am enjoying the entirety of this outfit, 100%. I’m getting your influences so strongly, and I enjoy that you’ve used a material like CDs alongside your purple colours. I can see this becoming a concept in itself, since there are a lot of fabrics out there that have that amazing shimmer that CDs have, I wish there were an addition of shoes and arms so that you could expand on what accessories there could be with this amazing piece. Overall, I enjoy your concept and this is a good job! Well done!

Gluttoni:

Letha: I love this look, Klinker! The shapes you made give me that pop star type of vibe, as well as the colors and textures. I’m left wanting for some shoes/accessories, as seeing what those would be could also really help the look along. Your choice of unconventional materials in the broken CD’s is awesome and I’m glad you picked them, as the holographic-ness really goes with the futuristic feel that this look embodies. I’m really feeling this look, great job!

Toni: Yas queen, giving me early lady gaga realness. I love that you used the cd’s esp cause thats a very popular style right now, the chrome/holographic style.I think the shape reads very interesting as well as the structure to it is very eye catching and is a real stand out. I adore that you included accessories that fit into your drawing and just were not thrown there because you felt it needed to be there. It all works really well together. Good luck babe and Good work!

Judah Kiss

Hi there judges! For my first mini challenge, I started off with a million ideas, but they all kind of just burned out. Eventually the idea struck me that even though I don’t have natural drawing ability, I could get my shapes and silhouette down by having nature do it for me. I decided to burn my paper, and design a dress out of the shapes that formed. Fire is savage, but gives life: and I wanted my design to be savage, while still giving life henny! I took a lighter to the top and bottom of my paper, burning into what would later become the hair and bottom of the dress. Then, I went in and drew an outline of the rest of the dress, including the arms, collar, and hair. For the collar, I used an OCC pressed shadow for some minor shimmer, and used colored pencils for the rest of the colors you see. I then glittered over the white area of the dress to give dimension and represent sequins. Finally, I took the charred pieces of burnt off paper and glued them onto the drawing as fringe for the dress along the sleeves and to separate the white and black areas of the dress. I didn’t draw hands because my hands suck, but the fringe there is for the sleeve; not some sort of scary claw hands. All in all though, I’m super happy with how it turned out!

Lila: Kudos for using a more so negative space unconventional material to make the piece have that beautiful trim of black to work with thanks to the lighter! Its really fun to see conventionally weird ways of designing and it paid off really well! Using the makeup as well gives the design the sort of intrigue we’re looking for! I do wish you drew like some hand flaps just so you could’ve added nails or gloves, but I love this design! Great Job!

Gluttoni:

Letha: This is a very interesting design for sure! The use of the paper itself to aid in your design is clever, and I quite enjoy the shapes created with both the hem/hair, but it does leave me wondering if the dress goes down to the floor, or is some sort of high/low asymmetric hemline situation. The use of texture is great throughout, as well as the colors, except for the main body of the dress. I really like the glitter as an additional texture, but I think the white is a bit too stark compared to the rest. If it were even a black glitter that would be incredible as the whole dress would be these different textures with the bold flame accents. But overall this is a great design and you should be proud of it!

Toni: okay c’mon thinking outside the box. This is such an amazing improvement to your first design that you showed me and I really love this. the idea of burning the paper and using the space is so smart and really shows that you put thought into this. I love the coloring and shape of it all it just does leaving me wondering about the base. Is it a hi/low or does it go all the way down and there are holes burnt into a dress. While it is visually stunning it does lack a bit of technical design. I am so proud of this, good luck in the main!

Marcella Fox

My inspiration for this design was Katya’s latex runway from AS2. In particular, the colours, the texture and the small flower embellishments. As much as I love the original, Marcella could never wear it, so I kind of adapted it to suit my own style. Whereas Katya’s is more of a costume, my version is a more wearable cocktail outfit, with a more girly-girl kind of look. I view myself as quite minimalist and fresh and simple in my style, so rather than building upon the original, I decided to refine it. I made it into a short dress, with a ruffled/gathered skirt, and added some cool sleeve thingies to balance out the simple silhouette. I kept the flowers in all the same places as Katya’s look, but changed the swimming cap into a hairband type thing, that I could wear in my signature red hair. Latex/PVC would be the main material, but anything shiny in the right colours would do the trick I think. And I added some flowers to the shoes to finish it off. I kept it free of necklaces/rings etc because I think it’d look more finessed without.

Lila: I am honestly gagged by how well you’ve created this concept and I love your little Marcella-Model-Mini-Me you have going on here, really impressive! Again, it’s such a cohesive little piece to go with your theme and I enjoy that you’ve also utilized the colours of your fashion in your communication, which is spot on too! The only critique (and this is a nitpick, because its difficult to find something to improve on) is just selection of fabrics, I would’ve loved to have seen the sleeves be more of a detachable capelet or cloak? But honestly, I love this concept! Great job!

Gluttoni:

Letha: I love the inspiration (as do we all) and it made the juxtaposition of the flowers with the latex even stronger. If the materials allowed it, I think this would be so adorable to see. Your detailed notes also help to sell the vision as something that could be really made. I’m also a sucker for a flower crown, so you know you got me there. Overall, while this is a concept we’ve seen before, you took it and tailored it to Marcella, and I applaud you for your creativity, great job!

Toni: This hit it out of the park for me, you could take this to any company, show them just this design, and they would be able to make the whole look just based off of this, and thats the sign of a good design!! Not only is it a strong look, and well designed but it also comes of ass VERY Marcella which tells me you know who you are as a queen and you know what you like, which is super important. Honestly I love this and have nothing to critique. It’s stunning! good job!

Lexi Lamour

For the first time, Hello Judges! This is the concept I came up with. I used pencil, color pencil, and black paperclips as my mediums to show the different parts of the design. I thought the paperclips would be inventive, unique, and could be used to show the volume that I had hoped to convey with my design.

I took inspirations from different cycles of ANTM, specifically Cycle 9: Episode 5 and Cycle 16: Episode 8. Both of which focused on showing high fashion looks using recycled materials, garbage, and fabric made out of recycled fabrics/materials and all natural products. These looks also all had unconventional aspects. My garment would have all 3 aspects: recyclable products, “recycled” fabrics, and unconventional materials. I also included 3 different head concepts using different hair and incorporated a headpiece in one.

Lila: OOH bitch, I am shocked at this! This is definitely the most intriguing design and It’d be interesting to see how this is made, I’m visualising like stuffed tubing to try and get that motif of the paper clips, or large wiring too! I’m glad you used a lot of high fashion looks and especially since I watch ANTM and PR for a lot of inspiration, the sources are a great way to try and get inspired by the couture nature of it all! My one critique would be that the hair and headpieces fall short against the billowing gown garment, like your girl is gonna look like the cakes Rupaul asked the Season 3 queens to decorate, you know? Nevertheless, Great job with this concept!

Gluttoni:

Letha: Lexi, this makes for an INCREDIBLE sketch, and to see how you would realize the shapes/textures of those clips would be amazing to see. I like how you kept it black/white/gray and let the textures and materials speak for themselves (except for that poppin’ red lip, thats cute). I do think the look calls for some very special hair or headpiece, and the fact that you included multiple options shows you had that in mind. I also appreciate your choice of materials, with everything being recycled or unconventional- it wasn’t part of the assignment, but bonus points for creativity! Strong work!

Toni:Classic, stunning, glamour! I love this, something about this is so classically beautiful to me and I can’t get over it. The colors are right, the shape is right and I love that you gave options. Now my biggest concern is how it would translate from paper, which worries me because the beauty may get lost, something to think about next time. Great job love!

Paprika

so i cant draw and i was rlly rlly afraid we would have to eventually make this so i thought i would do something basic but like, not?? last night i drew some basic lil skirt and shirt but it was ugly and i threw it away, and i did this today in class because im a bad student smh. its inspired by untitled and emilie autumn and weddings and shit like that, its like a wedding dress but more minimal and deconstructed and i feel like it definitely fits my style. think white wedding meets heroin chic, like some bride had a really low budget and then her husband ditched on her day of.

Lila: Hey Paprika! First things first, I love the idea of a wedding dress, and I’m glad your influences are coming through! Your communication (while hilarious) is sound and I do wish you werent as afraid of this mini because I knew you could’ve taken this all the way! While it’s imperative you should be speculating what the designs are gonna be used for, you should bring your all to each challenge we give you, because it’s really unfortunate that this feels a little basic. I wish you weren’t as worried for this challenge because I know you have some stellar ideas, trust! Good job, nonetheless! (and don’t be too afraid!! remember to messages us if you’re ever worried or stuck!)

Gluttoni:

Letha: This look is cute, but I have to admit that it’s not my favorite. I just wish there was more to it? We’ve all seen a wedding dress, so your challenge should have been to make YOUR wedding dress special and unique to you. More detail added to the drawing itself (or as least more notes on what you wanted), what shoes there would be, all that. Your description gives some insight, I just wish we had more visuals on this outfit. But the concept is still there, so good job!

Toni: Hey girl! Now I have to be honest, I know who you are as a queen and performer so when I saw this I was majorly let down when I saw this. You have so much creativity and spark in you and I would have loved to see this come alive on paper. This is a cute design, basic wedding dress really, with not much detail on what is going on with it. I do really wish you had reached out to the judges so they could have worked with you to build you up. I know you’re gonna work hard in this next main so good luck babe!

Phoebe St. Jefferson

For my mini I was first inspired by Alexis Michelle’s promo look, but I wanted to add a twist to it, so I made it an asymmetrical glow in the dark club look. The hair is going to be big and wild with structured shoulders.

For the colors I chose a simple grey for the daytime look, and then when in the dark/under a blacklight, the dress transforms into a wild glow in the dark design. It looks very aquatic deep sea realness and I am living for it.

Lila: Hello Phoebs! First off, I am enamored that you’ve chosen to do such a unique twist to your design such as doing blacklighting. Really creative and exciting! It’s great to see you communicating with the judges to get a piece like this, especially having it digitally done as well. I wish there were a little bit more to this in the bottom half of this dress though, like a pair of shoes, and potentially a little bit of a fascinator or accessory, and perhaps more UV-oriented colours, like I love my neons, so it lacked a little in that area! BUT I applaud that you’ve gave your model a lot more than just a dress form with a pair of arms, and I can visualise this being a concept in real life. Good Job!

Gluttoni:

Letha: This is a really cool look, Phoebe! I love the innovation of the glow in the dark changing the look (though I would be careful with the design itself, as the squiggles look a bit like something else that’s black light reactive, lol). The silhouette is very modern and strong, and I can get behind that! I would like to see more details on this design, such as accessories or shoes because they could help complete the look. The hair is cute, an having it back away from the face/shoulders is a smart decision. Well done!

Toni:Oh okay miss Phoebe you giving us a two in one day to night fantasy right here! I love the shoulder pads, right off the bat. I think it was smart to do this black light, 2in1 concept so that you have more creativity to work with if that makes sense. I do worry that its an odd length, and its lacking a few accessories imo. also I wish you had ran with the under the sea fantasy and taken it as far as it would go because I love that part of this. Over all good work!

Sugar Monroe

Hellooooooo judges and TDR! It’s Sugar Monroe, back to give a bitch a cavity. ;) first off, I cannot tell you how excited, happy and thankful I am to be back for another cycle and to prove I have what it takes to be tumblr’s next drag super star. 😘 Now onto this mini: I wanted to give you a kind of fairy queen-esque look and I was inspired by flowers (obvi) and how you can take them from where they were originally planted, and they’ll take root and blossom to an even bigger and better bloom. And that’s like me this cycle. Taken from last cycle, and now I’m taking roots here and ready to blossom into the amazing queen I know I can be! ☺️

Lila: Welcome back mama! I can’t wait to see what you do this cycle! Okay, first things first, I am absolutely living for where your concept is being inspired by, very Angela Clayton meets White Queen from Narnia. The communication level on the design is really high standard, what I’m expecting to see from you when you guys send your thoughts for feedback etc. so I’m really impressed. I can see this being turned into a concept clearly, which is great. My main problem would be that you could have sketched your concept a little larger and maybe even added your capelet onto the concept, just so that would’ve been a bit more clearer in terms of how you presented the idea. Nevertheless, this is a great start to this cycle! Good job!

Gluttoni:

Letha: I’m so glad that you’re back, Sugar, I can’t wait to see what else you have to offer, starting with this design! Overall, it’s cute, and I’m more in favor of a dress vs. separates in this case. I have an obvious bias as a total flower bitch, but I really enjoy the color scheme, it’s very muted/pastel, and with the white it gives a very ethereal effect. I like how you didn’t put the flowers EVERYWHERE, and enjoy the gradient effect on the cape, but I do get a lot of negative/bare space in the middle of the dress. I see the belt there, maybe jazzing that up a bit could help? I would also have loved to see more development in the hair/accessories, as they could really further the look (yes, I’m talking about maybe adding a fucking flower crown THERE I SAID IT OKAY!). But other than that, good job this week, and I hope to see you continue to keep the momentum going!

Toni:Shes back back back again! Sweet as sugar but still a massive bitch <3. I love this boots the house down, it’s giving me queen of the faeries, its giving me letha but as a good witch. I love the idea of you in this motherly and natural state, with beautiful thin fabric covering your body and being graced by flowers. Its something I don’t think ive ever seen from you and I think it would be amazing to see on you. I do wish the sleeves were dramatic and long but thats just a person choice. Good luck this week!
