Sin título #334 - Polyvore

This is by a painter on Polyvore I know as concept. She I figured by the work, is so talented and endless with information needing to come out, we are in a realm of kismet. A era of mass media to trip accidentally across a treasure such as "concept" is a luck and love I value. I hope you enjoy her work as much as I do. leotajane

The Blues 
Fashion Fundamentals Spring 2013
Teal, Monaco blue, Grayed Jade, and Cobalt blue
all blues we have seen in every fashion show from 2013 Spring fashion week New York,London, Paris, Milan, Sydney, Brazil, anywhere our Style Bubble goes, I see blues.

 
a vintage look at animal prints in blues & black


The aqua background is a favorite with photographer's esp with darker colored objects or animals like my favorite a bunny.

a unique way to shot a patterned kimono with water in aqua, the tiles, the lanes lines, the mixing of circular lines on the cloth with straight lines on the pool

after draping has been the desired way to design a dress, now we have a kind of wrap around seemingly easy display of making a dress when the proportions and silhouette hard extremely difficult to make look so easy.

I love the contradiction of the top taking us to the left while the pleating & bustle guide us to the right, balancing out the dress with near exact proportions.

the continuing skinny jeans they say are going out out out, are still breathing with a fresh set of colorings and prints. The newest trend I am seeing is not just bright colors but bright colors with patterns, prints & dyes. I first saw 10 Crosby from Derek Lam fell in love.

As Cathy Horyn of the New York Times noted, Oscar de la Renta made one dress after another dress, the kind he does the best with, but at a pace of way too many sent down the runway. I must agree, before reading her comments, I was getting bored with the recreation of his perfect work on dresses we have seen in different colors, fabrics and patterns. Not to bust his chops, just a bit of "resting on one's laurels" had a moniker on this show. Disappointing, especially from a designer whom has complained at the First Lady for not wearing more American designers aka him. Give her something she would wear. A fresh style much like, Proenza Schouler, Tracy Reese, or Isabel Marant. 

I am in love with Erdem they do not wrong. These platforms just feel subtle and big and chunky with a delicate floral wrapped gentle around them.


The color of Erdem, I first noticed in the watercolor collection 2 years ago, has only grown into a plethora of dripping, mixed, almost with accidental grace prints, floral, delights of dresses, separates the fashion world is clamoring to get. They are new bright silhouettes, 1950's house dresses one could wear to meet the Queen. The fresh, light, streamlined collections are a new statement of where fashion is headed.
Gisele delights us all in Versace with a simple aqua bodycon dress, decoratively studded for several silhouettes and glitter for all the flashbulbs when she is around.

A photoshop session with 150 year old Edwardian lace, gave me a great pattern, and color scheme I could not pass up sharing. It's amazing what 1850's lace can become with 2012 technology. To make a dress with this pattern on silk, charmeuse or chiffon would be brilliant and in my opinion off the charts.
Lastly a play on blue on blue, sky meets sea, opposite positioning however ever so charming, simple, elegant, and simply delightful. Go blue Go!
