Describing our style.
We draw inspiration from early couture trends, through
1920's to the 1960's
(skipping the Seventies)
and ending up with the really creative bits from the 1980's.
Our way of working is
Romantic, playful but understated, and Organic.
My direct source of inspiration comes from Music.
While i'm walking with my Ipod,
I make a direct link to a specific piece of music.
I then use what that music makes me think and feel.
I can begin referencing that mood to fist hand primary sources,
sampling and photography,
or secondary sources like books and the internet.
Although we don't have favourite designers,
it's my opinion as designers,
were not entitled to preference's, an open mind and all that.
But the last word in fashion for Emma is Valentino.
Beautiful long classic lines, tones of sumptuous fabrics, and decadent embroideries.
For me, it's hard to choose a favourite,
I am in debt to so many of my role models.
I really wouldn't like to stipulate who I should celebrate the most.
Christian Dior
John Gailliano
Givenchy (image, Ricado Tisci)
Thierry Mugler
Gianfranco Ferre
Jean Paul Gaultier
Balenciaga
Alexander McQueen
Christian Lacroix
... to name a few.
Each one an inspiration, a teacher, and a legend.
