For my project I am emulating a 50s fashion aesthetic. I will be making a coat that is representative of the late 50s style. Throughout the 20th century coats changed quite a bit. That said, I think that the 50s style was the most defined as an era of fashion.

Here are coat fashions throughout the 20th century.

Here is my original drawing for my coat:

Now I have tried to represent a coat using steampunk, futuristic, and biomimicry aesthetics.

For the steampunk coat there are elements of vintage style along with more modern stripes.

For the futuristic coat I looked at other futuristic fashion and noticed there were a lot of harsh angles, diagonal zippers and buttons, and geometric patterns.

For the biomimicry coat I made it look like a leaf!
