DREAM OF GOLDFISH

While I was painting the Christian Dior Resort 2014 inspired illustration, I was mesmerized by these colorful floaty dresses. 

I keep imagining the girls being surrounded by fancy goldfish, like this...

CHRISTIAN DIOR RESORT 2014

Today's collection was inspired by Christian Dior Resort 2014 collection. 
The color scheme for this collection is quite lovely, black and white, a few shades of creams and the primary colors. For this season, Raf Simons followed the conventional Dior tropes--flowers, lace, and rounded sihouette; added his signature touch while showing ultimate respect for tradition.  Simons included some asymmetry, dynamism and multiple zips in each design, it's "A symbol of sport and dynamism," he said.

El esquema de colores para esta colección es super bonito, blanco y negro, con tonalidades de cremas son los colores primarios. Para esta temporada, Raf Simons sigue las metáforas convencionales de Dior: flores, encajes y sihouette redondeada, añaden su toque personal mientras muestra definitiva el respeto por la tradición. Simons incluyen cierta asimetría, dinamismo y múltiples cremalleras en cada diseño, se trata de "un símbolo del deporte y el dinamismo", el dijo.

FOXY LADY

Today's illustration was inspired by Jean-Charles De Castelbajac Fall 2013 RTW collection. 

For me, this collection is a love at first sight!  As always, his collection is a running commentary about his world view, fashion. “Our world is at the cusp of something, like in the days of the pre-Raphaelites when the train was being invented. Poetry has become obsolete, but I want it to be a weapon.”The theme for this collection is Foxy Lady. "His 'Foxy Lady' is a redheaded firebrand who spearheads this revolution of words. The poetry of her gestures is an act of rebellion, like her coral slicked upper lip, the bottom half remaining nude."--NowfashionIt's a very whimsical and utterly wearable collection. It consists of a series of cozy blanket coats, plaid blanket separates, printed separates and dresses inspired by pre-Raphaelite art.

This season, Madrid-based label Delpozo made an impressive New York fashion week debut, bringing with it a fresh design sensibility."Creative director Josep Font merged two disparate ideas — organic architecture and the femininity of the Victorian era — into a lineup of beautiful dresses, jackets and tops with a focus on volume and sculpting around the shoulders and hips, while still maintaining waist definition."--wwd.com The Delpozo girls looked very feminine and modern in their beautifully crafted designs.

WEDNESDAY ILLUSTRATION: CHRISTIAN DIOR SPRING 2013 COUTURE

Today's illustration was inspired by Christian Dior Spring 2013 Couture collection. The show feels so beautiful, serene and surreal.
The inspirations behind this season's collection are spring, flowers and garden. "When Raf Simons read Christian Dior's autobiography during his summer break in Puglia, he found unexpected parallels with his own state of mind, particularly in Dior's love of the countryside, the garden he would retreat to, the flowers he grew there. 'There was such purity in that story,' said Simons."--style.com

La inspiración detrás de la colección de esta temporada son las flores de primavera y el jardín. "Cuando Raf Simons leo  la autobiografía de Christian Dior durante sus vacaciones de verano en Puglia, encontró paralelismos inesperados con su propio estado de ánimo, sobre todo en el amor de Dior del campo, el jardín, se retiraba a las flores que allí crecían." Había tal pureza en esa historia ", dijo Simons" --style.com

WEDNESDAY ILLUSTRATION:ALEXANDER MCQUEEN SPRING 2013 RTW

Today's illustration is inspired by Alexander McQueen Spring Summer 2013 RTW collection.
The inspiration for this season's Alexander McQueen designs is bees!!! LOVE the theme of this season!  The silhouette of the outfits are very dramatic and exaggerated, then there's honeycomb patterns and honey-based color palette used on every design.
"The models' heads were covered in archly modernist beekeepers' veils. The clothes they wore refracted a honeycomb motif through a dozen wasp-waisted guises, bound, haltered, and harnessed in a tortoiseshell that could quite equally have been a rich, sweet toffee."--style.com

WEDNESDAY ILLUSTRATION:CHRISTIAN DIOR SPRING 2013 RTW

Today's illustration is inspired by Christian Dior SS 2013 RTW collection. 
"According to the show notes—and Raf's own words—the key descriptor for this new era at Dior is "freedom." But freedom from all restraint ultimately leads to the excess of self-destruction. What we saw today, by contrast, suggested an appreciation of the power of limits."--style.com
I especially love the iridescent balloon floral-printed skirts and those shiny stilettos!

WEDNESDAY ILLUSTRATION:BALMAIN SPRING 2013 RTW

Today's illustration is inspired by Balmain Spring Summer 2013 RTW collection. 
Many of the cuts of the clothing referenced the early 1990's, ranging from sleeveless crop tops, to mini skirts, shoulder pads, and men's trousers. The silhouette included a fuller high-waisted pant, an exaggerated shoulder, and a focus on the midriff and legs.
I especially love the architectural silhouettes of the outfits and geometric patterns used throughout this collection!
