Title: For Matthew, via Mexico
Image by Stefan from Oxfordshire | in fashion, design & create, drawings/design
My inspiration, following on from a Mexican theme, has come from the national flower of Mexico: the Dahlia. It is a particularly varied species with rich, vibrant colours that reflect both Mexican culture, and the people of Mexico. I chose to use the quechqumitl, a traditional Mexican shirt, which I decided to use as a base-design for a jacket. I used a simple Pica skirt in a uniform colour which, I saw, was a common theme running through the M.W. collection pre-spring 08.
