Inspiration

This is what's inspiring me today.....maybe it will turn into a collection!

 Here's a little bit of my concept: When ballerinas travel to and from their classes I think their style always portrays a very effortless and chic look. Often I see ballerinas wearing baggy pants paired with a relaxed sweater or jacket and then the skintight leotard pulls the whole outfit together. I was inspired by the laid back style of ballerinas on their time outside of the studio but also the tulle and lux fabrics used in their stage costumes. Edgar Degas was another inspiration and the colors in his paintings are stunning. I really love whimsical photos and this animates how my croquis poses.
