| painting the roses red! |
If you have been keeping up with the Couture Shows that have taken place this week in Paris,
then you will surely recognize these illustrations.
This is my own rendition of Alexis Mabille's Spring Couture Wonderland, and while
it didn't get raving reviews the minute I saw the giant flower head-pieces I knew I had to draw them.
It's like the flower garden from Alice in Wonderland.
And yeah, maybe the clothes weren't so ground-breaking -nothing we've never seen before- it was the theatric air that gave the show a certain punch. Maybe it's just me and my love for theatrics (Yeah, that's why I loved Galliano) and perhaps that's why I look forward to the couture shows so much, because they're not just runways, they're real spectacles.
Hopefully one day I'll get to attend one.
A girl can dream...
