FUTURISTIC FRENZY
Recently I have been infatuated with the idea of simplicity in design. I am in a totally different environment, and I think it may do me some good...
I have a pretty good eye for spotting awesome prints and picturing them as a complete garment. I can't get enough of stripes and geometric shapes mixed with solids, but not to many designers can do the two justice... Until I discovered the Dior Haute Couture Fall 2011 show! I have always been a fan of The House of Dior, but today ladies and gentlemen, I have far more respect! The hard black geometric lines in some of the skirts and jackets are to die for, the shades of pastels are amazing, and the architectural shapes resting on the heads of the models just completed it for me!
Not to long ago, a good friend of mine introduced me to the new age of sketchbooks, Fashionary sketchbooks! Not only are these amazing sketchbooks, but the new editions come with Patterns, flat drawings, monthly calendar, fashion events, spec sheets, measurement tools, and much more! I received mine last friday (came earlier then it was expected) and I absolutely love it and could not be more pleased! I highly suggest investing in one of these babies, especially if your a fashion student.. At a whopping $23.90 and free shipping, you cant beat it!
