LuLu : Fashion Label thoughts



Subculture:
high fashion/alternate

Totems and symbols:
  • antique items and picture frames,
  • flower motifs,
  • body shape silhouettes,
  • random art images,
  • eyes,
  • red lipstick,
  • human expressions
Colours:
Blacks, greys, whites and sudden bright splashes of colour
- think loud paint thrown against an old vintage wall paper


Historical Style:
I'm not too sure where my influence is from, its a bit of a confused between recent high fashion, and vintage 1950s - 70s. Imagine current high fashion style mixed with vintage pattern and electric colour

Age Group:
17 - 30

Gender:
Female

Season:
spring - summer

Geographical Distribution:
high fashion capitals; London, Paris, etc and our Sydney

Social, Political or Environmental issues:
I'm thinking of making some shirt print designs that are reflective of different social comments, like those made by the graffiti artists we studied last term. I want to express environmental awareness issues by my use of printing materials and fabrics. No harm to animals for making of products.
