Sneak Peek

Dear All,

I have been working hard to finish my homework and produce 3 finished pieces all based around the work of Gustav Klimt. I still have loads more ideas but as the summer project has kicked in I have to put these on a back burner. I thought I would give you all a sneak peek before the photo shoot. Now all I have to do is find a willing model, any takers..........

Couture Accessories

Whilst researching for my summer project I came across this amazing silk tulle headpiece by Balenciaga. It's from his 1964 collection and is aptly named "mille-feuilles".

The tulle pom-poms are so soft and delicate but very contemporary at the same time. I would never have thought this kind of fabric could be used to create a structured headpiece, but it works beautifully.

Spring has Sprung



Spring has sprung in my garden and I have been scouring for inspiration for my summer project. Textures and Colours are the brief so what better place to start than right here at home in my own little corner of London.






The mixture of colours and textures, rough with smooth is definitely something to explore.
