"Random Inspiration"
Every artist needs inspiration right?
Well I often get asked "what inspires me" so I'll share with you some images I've collected that tickles my fancy. Display ideas, vintage pieces, other fellow artisans (many from Etsy) and overall hair & make-up looks I adore...
True...I do f-bomb <3 Bill Murray...
Encase you haven't noticed...my first love is vintage or anything with an eclectic twist...
Vivienne Westwood above...swooooooooon
I'm a sucker for hats...I've got dozens of them in my own personal collection...
Never underestimate the power of great styling...
It's amazing what one versatile accessory can do to revamp the wardrobe...
One of my very first jobs out of high school was working as an apprentice for a hair salon in downtown Vancouver. I have a HUGE appreciation for hair artistry. Hair & shoes can make or break an outfit...
Yes...I'm a little obsessed with 1920's finger woven hair styles right now...
Maybe it's the fact that I was a teenager in the 90's (I did have a bit of a goth spurt) or maybe it was my love for Edgar Alan Poe, film noire, Tom Waits or listening to Portishead's "Dummy" album on repeat when it first made its debut. It could also be the fact that my line Adhesif Clothing is the exact opposite in aesthetic but...I enjoy a bit of a darker perspective at times...call it macbre, call it moody. There's just something mysterious & alluring about a dimly lit atmosphere...
On that note...these are a few of my favorite things as of late. I'm currently hand cutting/producing pieces for Fall-Winter at the moment. Thus is the life of the fashion designer always a season ahead. Can't wait to bring out the new pieces once all the finishing details are all done!
