About Dressing Codes & Its Flashes :


A lot of water has passed under the bridge since i changed my mind and leave an old [fashioned] concept (made surely by myself) regarding Fashion Industry/ Fashion World and its inevitable association to Frivolity. This came together with a new personal concept about the subject, and a perspective that takes me tackle the theme only in a serious manner.

Therefore , something i'm delighted with lately is Fashion [Photography]. For many strong different reasons, one of them maybe the main one, because of a personal consideration
about " clothing - dressing yourself"; this seems to be a fun way to make others know your interior, express yourself, and a different way to say who you are , definetely a "great" option for visual performers/ lovers.

Natalie Berezina, see : http://www.natalieberezina.com/ is a contemporary fashion photographer whose portfolio not only caught my attention but left me a gentle impression increasing my curiosity and interest in this creative work. About her job? its primary interest is people , then clothes.
Her shooting is the main result of three main characteristics:

1) She never selects models intensibly beautiful but interesting faces instead .

2) Each detail is simple , almost accidental.

3) The style of the clothing and make up follows the same principle.

Following some fashion [pictures & words] :


Pictures (a)-(b)

*One thus can find thoughtful faces and natural looking poses.






Picture (c)

*Some consider it too commercial, frivolous and criticized for promoting negative stereotypes.





Picture (d)


*Is up to the fashion photographer to create an illusion.





Picture (e)


*It's about following your instinct. Then ... , be true .

Words to touch . Part II : Defilé

Now is time to give words a little turn.
In this post we are not interested in their meanings in their phonetics, or their use but in their looks . Looks matters when we care shape based in a real content, so our purpose is to get a defined form , respecting their inherent characteristics, for getting till that level there was a process to follow , this consists in taking word's spirit out. First a group of words was selected between other reasons because they all had character, energy and other particular features:

Words to touch. Part I


Whatever their form is (as a name, as
a verb, as an adjective, as a noun) and whatever your reason is .

The fact is that words can play a second role besides the grammatical one .
There is a kind of lexical impact (i will call this way), this happens when we feel particularly attached to a word or words.

In the world of magic worlds , a personal criteria appears ;

Words can become attractive to me because of the following reasons:

1) Because of their meaning- [abstract one], such as;
(portrait, universe, spirit, develop, composition)

2) Because of their phonetics- [sound], such as,
(blaspheme,versatile,constellation,miscellaneous,decades)

3) Because of their writing-[look], such as,
(atmosphere, argument, metamorphosis, nebula, echo)

4) Because of their use,-[frequency], such as,
(aspect,reflect,substantial,translate,language)

5) Because of the relation they keep with the object or reality they represent [concret one], such as
(character, monster,breath, concept, capture)

Finding a font (typography) for each word, is just having fun in our way to give them a final personality (design).

Now , would you tell me your words?

Sketching a coquette idea.-


First Detail: i got a fabric from my father, there is no particular reason.
It's just a present from his stay in a city. I see he needed to materialize his thought about me.

I think even though I didn't expect it , it's welcome sure.

*







Second Detail: i ask myself , what would I do with this fabric ?. Being honest I wasn’t interested in a soft – flowers- colour fabric, it doesn’t fit my mood neither my closet.


*
Third Detail: An idea came to me. Great. I recognize this as the chance to begin doing my own
clothings and not postpone it anymore , finally give my sketches a breath!






















*
Fourth Detail: that’s how the clothing making process started .
Now just one objective to accomplish:
my desired -personalized-blouse
