To get a sense of the classic colour pallet for the brand, I
looked over lots of previous collections and they are very feminine with nudes,
whites, creams, lots of pinks and soft pastel colours however they often have a
contrast with bold colours like dirty yellows or a rusty orange.
From my tutorial this week my tutor also told me that the
brand often focus their inspiration on cultures through the shape of their
garments and prints in their collections. From this I have moved onto drawing a
body of work from looking into oriental influences like patterns on the classic
kimonos and floral designs. Also looking into oriental architecture and deco.
I sourced my own images through visiting China town here in
Manchester and looking into the shops to see style and colour and have now
refined my work into the structure of fans and lanterns from this photographic
research.
