I am doing a styling fashion project for Uni where the aim of the project is to style an outfit, hair and makeup look inspired by a vintage car. For this project the fashion students went to the Grampian Transport Museum and adopted are wee car. I chose the Ford Model T. Henry Ford famously said "Any customer can have this car in any colour as long as it is black." Black is certainly a colour which will feature heavily in my project. Think the little black dress! It is said that Coco Chanel was inspired by the Ford Model T when creating her LBD the ford dress.
This Spring/Summer 2012 many fashion houses have used the 1920's as style inspiration for creating their beautiful designs. Look at Dior, Ralph Lauren, Marc Jacobs and Gucci. These designers are using the flapper dress, dropped waist style, beading and fringing, and the summer suit to recreate this opulent and elegant era.
Audrey Hepburn's dress from Breakfast in Tiffany's is the most iconic little black dress which is certainly going to influence my fashion project, although not the same era, I hope to achieve the simplicity of the perfect LBD.
When i have done the photoshoot i will upload photo's of the finished styling project.
