"Here again, we have another example of what I've done when I just let my hand draw free. When I shut my eyes and designed. It just goes to show you that the designing possibilities for swim suits are endless. These lines are nothing like any of the other ones I've shown you but they're nothing like anything I'll create next. Just sit down, I beg of you to sit down. Give yourself an hour, block an hour of time first. Not much more, it doesn't really matter how much you do just block an hour of time, sit down and challenge yourself to create a certain number of styles based off of one silhouette. Do the easiest thing starting out, is the one piece bathing suit. See how many different ideas you can create, free flowing, just let it go. It doesn't have to be perfect and you will come up with the most amazing things when you just let yourself go. This one obviously, I'm probably not going to reproduce upside down as well, but you get the point. It doesn't matter if you reproduce this exact same thing, it's all based on what you feel at the moment and where you want the lines to go on the body. So I'm just going to stop right there and let you take it from there."
