Lots of Layout

So my 'tracking a trend' project is coming along nicely, lots of images have been collected and I've started putting together some great words from the research I have found. 

Now to look at layout,  I've flicked through a variety of journals, books and mags and found a few that I love. Most of them are neat and tidy and consist of words and images in columns. I'm a sucker for a column and I also think they look professional yet stylish.

Its all about denim...

So one of my first brief's at uni is 'tracking a trend', so after much consideration I chose denim. I love denim! Denim jeans, dresses, shorts and much more. Tracking this trend so far has been an interesting journey finding out about the history of Levi Strauss and Carhartt and how Hollywood stars such as Marlon Brando helped make denim what it is today. I've also been flicking through old magazines and journals finding some great editorial denim pieces and researching the Gucci Spring/Summer 2001 collection by the amazing Tom Ford. 
Here's some stuff I've found during my research.
Note: Check out Marlon Brando in Image 4 switswoo!!!
