Saturated colours are in! And that makes me one happy little designer :-)
John Galliano used the flowers from his childhood garden as inspiration...and there is nothing humble about these blooms...
While the head-gear was a little, umm...odd...
...the dresses were whimsical and colourful and just utterly, jaw-droppingly beautiful...
Pure, unadulterated colour...
...it takes a certain degree of daring to use it so boldly, and I take my hat off to Galliano for his bravery. But it paid off...it was HIS collection making headlines around the world, not the forgettable neutrals, nor the predictable pastels.
Colour makes you sit up and take notice!
One of the things I love so much about jewellery (both in the making and in the wearing) is that you can be bold and explore outrageous colour combinations on a small scale. You don't have to don a floor-length frilly, fluffy, frivolous gown a la Christian Dior...you can don an outrageously colourful pair of earrings with a white tank and jeans, or a boldly-coloured, over-the-top necklace with a little black dress.
Jewellery is the perfect opportunity to make a bold statement...on a small scale :-)
Stay tuned for some colourful creations here soon!
Thanks for looking, and be well!
