Pinterest

Recently I have really been into looking at Pinterest as it has some interesting ideas for textiles aswell as outfit ideas and quotes. I have been using it as part of my textiles project by researching fashion designers, this includes Elie Saab, Givenchy and Valentino. This has enabled me to find up close photos of the dresses which highlight the detail and backstage pictures from the designer's catwalk shows. The collections I have used in my project use very light colours which highlight a sense of nostalgia. I particularly like Elie Saab's Spring/Summer 2012 and 2013 collections as he use a variety of pastel colours, embellishment and flower petals on his work. Valentino's S/S 2012 and 2013 collections use a lot of white aswell as nostalgic style prints. Givenchy's Autumn/Winter 2010-11 collection use lots of lace in a variety of colours including beige and white aswell as the use of frigning in the form of feathers and fur.
