Project Inspiration...

I am hoping to start a new project and just thought I would share this lovely inspiration I have come across. I love these beautiful smoky images and I think they would make wonderful starting points for prints.

London...

I went to spent Valentines weekend in the amazing city of London! I hadn't been since I was six years old so I had a lot to see!  Such a beautiful city to explore and I found lots of inspiration for my new project at university! I was really inspired by beautiful architecture, traditional red post boxes, and of course British Culture! Everything felt so 'British' even though I live in Great Britain! As the Olympic Gamers are being held here next year as well as celebrating the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, for my next project I am going to create a print collection which celebrates British Culture in a contemporary and feminine way using my inspiration from London as well as taking forward the stronger elements from my last project.



Francesco Scognamiglio SS 2011...

Bianca Balti for Francesco Scognamiglio SS 2011 Campaign by Giampaolo Sgura

I love the illustrations featured in this ad campaign! I really like how surreal and quirky they are. I also like how the use of both photography and drawing has been mixed.

Love this editorial for Industrie. I find it just breathtaking! It is a great source of styling inspiration for my current university project as well! The colours are lovely, very subtle and fresh! What do you think?

I would really appreciate it if all my lovely female readers could complete a very short survey for me about women, identity and body image. It only takes about two minutes to complete and will help me greatly with an essay I am currently working on! You can complete the survey here.

Thanks!

Alexander McQueen SS11 ...

I was doing some research into trend prediction for my current project and came across this collection by Mcqueen. Very inspiring and relates directly to my own work.

What do you think?

Project Inspiration...

I came across these lovely images from Vogue 1996 as I was searching for inspiration for my current project. Very beautiful and I love the floral elements. 

Just a little more inspiration from my current project.

 TOPSHOP Unique

This is just a little inspiration from my latest project.

I was initially inspired by the Topshop Unique SS11 Collection and Viktor and Rolfs Flowers SS03 Collection. Two very different collections, one is very beautiful and feminine and the other very dark and gloomy, almost apocalyptic. As well as these two collections I have also found inspiration in the work of Alexander McQueen and Christopher Kane. I was also inspired by photographs of destruction and decay and space. Armageddon style and the post apocalypse is a strong source of inspiration for this project.
