Where do I get my inspiration? Well from loads of things I can say honoustly. Sometimes I see a building with a certain structure which inspires me to make a fun skirt with the same movement. It can be just a colour or a conversation. A kid with a dress that is uncomfortable. I have been teaching myself to make an instant drawing (if possible) immediatly. Sadly by not doing so in the past Im pretty sure I have forgotten a couple of great ideas.
Inspiration can also come from a very obvious place. Fashion! Lately I have been inspired greatly by the retro mod dresses scene which has been booming for a while already. (Mod is the style of being modern or up-to-date in fashion and culture.) Im in love with retro fifties, sixties and seventies dresses. I see other designers being inspired by it as well.
A couple of weeks ago I ordered this dress from Thongbai Tatong. A comfortable tricot dress in retro, sixties mod style. What a great dress. I simply could not resist and I downsized the model for the little girlies. With an up to date fabric for girls from now ofcourse. I adore this little dress. Little girlies welcome to the sixties. You can be retro now as well :-)
