INTRODUCTION
This projects aim is to design a set of collection which consists of six or more garments inspire by Versace spring summer 2018 ready to wear collection. That particular runway was one of the most liked runways because of the clothes and designs that were used. They were the designs collected from the history of archives as a tribute to her late brother Gianni Versace. Vogue, Warhol, My Friend Elton, Icons, Baroque, Animalia, Native Americans, Tresor de la Mer, Metal Mesh, and Butterflies were the prints that are included. By mentioning animalia , first thing comes to our mind is animal prints; Does prints made by hurting animals? Sometime before there was , but about 70-75 % people reduced rationalizing animals instead they have transferred or preferred vegan prints more. So, this might be a betterchoice to show the awareness of animal cruciality in this collection. Isonomy has always been a very bigquestion in society but is it in fashion? Yes, it is. To overcome that, “Romanticism” concept has playeda vital role in this project. Not only to give the in depth amount of attractiveness but also to bring isonomyin common. By going through researches, it came to notice that only few of the runway model has women’s clothing on them but not a gown or dress this shows that the lack of isonomy. In early period (18th century) men wore full skirted knee length coat, knee breeches, a vest or long waistcoat, a linen shirt with frills and linen under drawers which women also wear so why not now?
The aim is to design acollection to overcome the above problem statements using assorted elements.

Procedure Design Exploration will be made after initial sketches or rough sketches. With Reference to design exploration, mood board, reference board and color Board will be developed digitally with the help of software. The software which will be using for all boards will be done in AdobePhotoshoporAdobe Illustrator.Proposedwork will be finalized and the garment construction should start by then.

a soft focus it is perfect of bringing back the fashion era to this modern world with assorted elements. Isonomy is common nowadays butbringing it in use is still a very less percent of chance; catching up and bringing back the decadeoffashionwithatwistofisonomymay increasethe chance. Developing a design / collection according to the current requirement could boost up the demand of the buyers and supporters.

Conclusion Developing a digital collection of garmentsmadeandsimulatedentirelyout ofadvance 3D program will solve many problems which are found while production. Creating garments in these types of software will help improve our knowledge and adds asan additional skill in the field of Fashion and Apparel Industry. Learning 3D is very useful because 3D is becoming acceptableeverywhere and people and designers are shifting their minds towards 3D and hereby, we have done our work from initial sketches, to survey and creating boards such as inspiration board, mood board andTrendBoardforourdesign.
