Inspiration for my Current Collection!

The main inspiration for my collection came form looking into myself! In looked at how i dress and feel on a day to day basis! After realising that i use clothes to give me security and confidence, i started to think about colour and things that i like and inspire me!

I had never really looked at the Northern Lights, i kind of knew they existed but that was about it! I started to look into them a bit more an began to see a similarity to how i see myself! I wear a lot of black - probably every single day of the year more or less!

The main colour behind the northern lights is the black of the night! The beautiful colours that move and change in the sky, being the main feature, relates to the colour of garments that i wear with my black items!

Kind of hard to explain, but hopefully your with me!










They are so spectacular to look at! I think they are propably one of the most beautiful things that isnt man made!

I also took inspiration from Stina Persson! Take a look at her website - her illustrations are amazing!!!

Below are just a few of her illustrations that i love! The use of inks are insane, i would love to be able to create images like these! I think colours relate the the Northern Lights. I am going to experiment with inks and colour and see what i can create!
