Description: Design a sporty or high fashion children’s accessory. Teacher Name: Miss Spear

Task Summary:
Working by yourself, you are to design a shoe or a bag for a child. You will need to research brands that are either
sports (Nike + 1 other) or High Fashion (Gucchi + 1 other). This research will influence your final design. Even though
the shoe/ bag design is for a child it must be aligned with current fashion trends. The design needs to be original
and easily adaptable to suit an adult. Your finalised design will communicate your understanding of Form and
Function as well as what makes a great design (ergonomics, short and long term impact).
Follow this layout to create a short folio and design your product.
