Here are some photos of the year 8 ‘Bug Shoes’. Students were asked to design wacky and flamboyant shoes which had to be based on bugs and insects. I created a design brief and made up the name of a fashion designer who was launching her first spring/summer collection – the clothes were based on insects and bugs, and the shoes had to match. Students started the project by researching different shoe designs, drawing bugs and insects. They then drew 4 designs and chose their favourite one to make. Using newspaper, cardboard, masking tape and loads of PVA glue, they modelled their designs. One fun thing was the students drew around their own shoes to measure the size to make their designs, so when they were finished they were to scale and the students could wear them!
