crimpin'ell

working on my catwalk image, i researched into deisgners that had based their collections on tribal undertones. To my delight i found Jeremy Scott! His spring summer 2010 collection was a brightly coloured tribute to the flintstones, which i thought was a fun way to look at the tribal aspect in this project. it also relates to my ideas of bright colouring for my catwalk image instead of the natural earthy tones that most tribal imagery associates with.

The neon colours in the clothing are the kinds of colours that i am thinking about using in my final design for the catwalk look.

The girls nails were claw like and i love this, i want to develop a nail specific to my final image for both the catwalk and editorial looks as attention to detail completes an image. This designer is straying a bit far from the original tribal ideas i had, but i haven ow decided that i want to create 2 completely different looks, the editorial having more traditional styles and colours and the catwalk being more extrovert and bold. I used this designer to look at the hair styles of the models. the crazy crimping of the hair gives a huge amount of texture and volume.

I thought this would be translated really well with the use of crepe hair which i can buy from sallys easily to add more hair to my model as well as adding a variety of colours to her aswel! The messy styles give a savage image to the model, i also like the detailed plaiting at the front of the hair intertwining different coloured plaits together with the natural hair. The hair overall portrays a chaos of colour and texture which i want to use in my final catwalk image
