Along time since i last posted unfortunately, but with exams etc. i simply haven’t had the chance! So, over Christmas my Dad kindly repainted my bedroom (it used to be a vile combination of lime green and lilac that aged 7 seemed just delightful) and i have been looking for some fabric to make curtains with to jazz it up a bit. Excitingly i discovered Michael Miller vintage inspired fabrics. Wow! Totally in love with all of the adorable printed fabrics, now just to decide what one to buy.
So far i think this one is my fave 🙂

Design project DONE
It has nearly killed me but i think i have finally finished my design project woo hoo! Here is a small selection of work from it.
Colin Mcdowell
Wow!!! We had a rather excellent speaker come in today in the form of Colin McDowell, what a fashion legend. He is an incredibly well respected journalist and fashion historian with such interesting views on fashion history. He said his favourite decade was the 50’s and that there are very few truly brilliant designers out there today, the best being John Galliano, who I have to say i agree with how brilliant Galliano is. His fall 2009 couture collection was simply breathtakingly beautiful taking underwear as outerwear and using it in a less sexually overt way than designers such as Westwood and Gaultier.
McDowell also made me want to be a fashion historian even more, he was just so incredibly passionate about his subject and he had such incredible knowledge, of the sort i can only aspire to have!
