Lulu - Development

I have now created the identity for the brand but i need to experiment with some of the processes in order to see if they will work the way that i want them too.
I was focusing on two different element of the processing for this brief.
1. the labels that will be wrapped around the garments, after my initial work laser cutting last week i decided i want to engrave onto clear acrylic, that way the clothes can still be seen and there is just an added texture. So i spent some time trying this design, but cutting out the whole shape this time and trying to different effects:
Kiss cut
Engrave

After doing it i realised that the Kiss cut, although not as obvious actually gives a much cleaner image because when you Engrave the laser burns away a lot of the material which means theres a messy edge left around the work.
