Fashion portfolio

This time next year, I'll hopefully be preparing to study fashion design at Central Saint Martins or La Chambre Syndicale in Paris so I've started working on a few projects for my portfolio. I don't really have much of an idea about what I'm meant to do or put in there but so far this is what I have.

I started off with my research. It was actually harder than I thought it would be to find a specific point of interest as I had so many different ideas to organize. I settled on Ancient China, specifically the artwork made out the time. I did loads of research on the internet, reading books and going to a few galleries.

Next I did some initial ideas, just getting all my ideas out onto paper using colour and my mood boards to create a few designs. I liked the colours in the painting but a lot of them were quite dark and dull; I wanted to make a spring/summer collection so brightened the palette using colours such as:

    
And then balancing them with white so they're not too overpowering.

Here is the almost final mini collection, I have a few changes to make for example playing with colours on the two outfits with orange skirts so the focus isn't on the same section two outfits in a row. I also might add an out with both the green and the fish pattern on it to create more unity.

What do you guys think?
Lot's of love,
