Vicky wants to go into politics. She is seventeen and enjoys reading
she has few friends. –most are older than her
•Imagine that you are going to design Vicky’s look.
•Describe her costume and general appearance. (6 marks)
General appearance may include reference to make-up, style
of dress, accessories, colour schemes, materials, fashion sense,
price, sources/brands etc.
There is no need to answer ‘costume’ and ‘general appearance’ separately.
For more than half marks, answers need to go beyond a list of items of
costume or make-up details.
Mark holistically.
5-6 marks = design concept is particularly imaginative and/or striking, detailed and
more than just a list.
3-4 marks = a clear design concept emerges at times, but answer is too itemised at
the expense of overall impact.
1-2 marks = a weak design concept, over-reliant on listing, little visual impact.
Two people have just limped across the field.
Choose one and describe their appearance.
