SUBCULTURE/HISTORICAL STYLE

With clothes there's pieces from a range of ages that take my interest, usually different parts of the styles that I could try and mix together to create my own image of clothing.  Varying from the ages of the 1930s, 50s and 60s. I am also interested in the Art nouveau era which catches my interest as it details yet, I feel. I would like a style of clothing that is dressing and elegant yet easy going so you may be able to dress it up and down depending on the occasion.

TOTEMS/SYMBOLS

  • quail 
  • 2 naked maniques of a boy and a girl the 50's stylistic shape
  • An elaborate, detailed letter (maybe use victorian style typography)
  • Fox
  • Horse (raring)
  • Wild flower fairys
  • a flower (generally would want a wild flower though)
  • Leaf
  • Autumn trees

FABRICS

I would like there to be a great variety of fabric used to create different feel and look about the clothing and which will catch the eye a little bit.

  • Lace
  • knitted (cotton)
  • synthetic
  • silk
RANGE

  • Night Dresses
  • Day Dresses
  • Shirts
  • Belts
  • Shoes
  • Bras/Undies
  • Scarfs
  • Coats
  • Gloves
  • Jeans
These are the things that I would like to have. No obviously its a little unrealistic but I will see how I go.

  1. I like Swoon, but it feels familiar. Maybe there's another label of hat name??

  3. quail would be challenging to use as a motif. i really like where you were heading with 1950s nursery rhymes. your historical eras are a bit diverse for one season nouveau, 30s, 50s, 60s. from your images looks more like 30s. i suggest you streamline influences a bit.
