SDP The Day Before the Fittings

28th March 2011

Today was the day before the fittings, and it was a very stressful day! I was in University very early, which was fortunate because I had to rearrange the fitting schedule around the designer before the Level 4 students arrived.

I realised today how unprepared we were; Camilla and I had to try and get a sample petticoat made for the Roses' fitting tomorrow. In hindsight, we should've made these last week. I need to get better at arranging my time, despite having a concise Work Plan, I really need to stick to it and get ahead of myself.

The fittings start at 8.30am tomorrow morning, which means an early start for me so I can get there at least 45minutes beforehand.

I'm extremely anxious about tomorrows fitting plan, Frances Tempest is happy with how I've arranged (extreme military precision!), I just hope that we can stick to it.

Tomorrow's fittings are for Camilla's group, so I will be acting as her assistant, then on Wednesday, my group are being fitted. This will be the test for me!

It's going to be a huge learning curve for me in organisational skills but I will rise to challenge and I'm hoping to succeed.

Fingers crossed!
