All of his work is so beautiful. <br /><br />I took a peek at the Colenimo Look Book...there definitely is a 20's feel, without copying the styles in the photograph exactly. (I really like the Oxford Leaf Dress.) <br /><br />Saying that the Steichen photo was the inspiration was a good marketing strategy, I think. I mean, who doesn't love Edward Steichen...Sarsaparillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14517012188376869524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5465295746865231888.post-3978890340852064932011-01-23T15:29:48.596-05:002011-01-23T15:29:48.596-05:00I do so love those hats - I wonder what their hat...I do so love those hats - I wonder what their hat hair looked like?<br /><br />Also - I have just nomintated you for an award.

The Peter Pan collar feels very 60s to me. Either way, I've been meaning to ask you, who's the woman in the tie in your header?

I really like the white suit and stiped blazer, and I can see how it could be inspired by the woman on the right of the photo. They have the same kind of rumpled elegance. But no, the dresses and JERSEY tee don't seem to have any correlation at all.Penny Dreadful Vintagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00658769790784076024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5465295746865231888.post-73632446462020546732011-01-22T13:19:08.456-05:002011-01-22T13:19:08.456-05:00It's a cute collection, but it doesn't see...It's a cute collection, but it doesn't seem to pull a ton of inspiration from the original image (which I adore too!). To me the collection would have been more directly inspired by long silhouettes in breezy fabrics and traditional-inspired clothes. <br /><br />♥ Casey | <a href="http://elegantmusings.com" rel="nofollow">blog</a>Casey Maurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09060290127464174281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5465295746865231888.post-87754636671408444362011-01-22T03:31:03.195-05:002011-01-22T03:31:03.195-05:00Yes, to me to the collection looks at times more 6...Yes, to me to the collection looks at times more 60's than anything else.garofithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18065577910797773138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5465295746865231888.post-42711823166841026772011-01-21T17:25:50.115-05:002011-01-21T17:25:50.115-05:00Nope no connection.

"breezy aristocratic" is a good description for Steichen's photograph.<br /><br />Besides that, I'm not sure what I'm looking at, it all looks very incoherent.<br />The grasspics are too unclear to see anything, the first pics looks very1970s to me. The jacket reminds me of a 1960s boxy shaped Jackie O. one? The most confusing piece is this odd tied sporty back. <br />Actually, I haven't got a clue what this collection represents.superheidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03912074343442864029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5465295746865231888.post-82751667421391960242011-01-21T16:29:29.820-05:002011-01-21T16:29:29.820-05:00It looks like a nice collection.

They are lovely clothes though, regardless.<br />From Carys of <a href="http://lavilleinconnue.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">La Ville Inconnue</a>Caryshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07229603935499988940noreply@blogger.com
