On the third of February me and the most of my college course are going to London and Paris… I cannot wait!!!!!!

We are only going on a four day trip and I have nearly filled a LARGE suitcase with different, brand new outfits that I will probably not have the time to wear, so I’m going to set myself a challenge and change outfits as many times as I can. Maybe the photos will look like I’ve been there longer than I actually have? Knowing me I will probably stay comfy in my onesie, they were sent from the designers of heaven I’m sure, amen to the onesie!

 

This is my design based on Art Nouveau.

 

Art Nouveau is a style of art, architecture and applied art. It was most popular during the 1910’s. Art Nouveau is considered a "total" art style, embracing architecture, graphic art, interior design, and most of the decorative arts including jewellery, furniture, textiles, household silver and other utensils and lighting, as well as the fine arts. According to the philosophy of the style, art should be a way of life. For many well-off Europeans, it was possible to live in an art nouveau-inspired house with art nouveau furniture, silverware, fabrics, ceramics including tableware, jewellery, cigarette cases, etc. Artists desired to combine the fine arts and applied arts, even for utilitarian objects.

 

My design was inspired by the art nouveau graphics, the back of the dress is based on women’s long hair in the posters.
