Fruit Inspired Accessories.

I came across these images as I felt they were very interesting to look at. I didn't realize how much food is incorporated in fashion.
I especially love the shoe above.

I even came across these designs by Camilla and Marc for Spring/Summer 2012 who have incorporated food within their designs.

Inspiration.

I decided to go down a different route. After looking at recipes on how to glaze fruit I decided to do a different take on it and maybe using paint instead. I looked at other images where fruit has been painted.

I particularly like the image above where half of the banana has been painted to make a splattered effect.

I have decided to focus in on fruit. I particully like the glazed fruit idea. The images below are from my recent London trip to Fortnum and Masson and the other is from my 50's cook book.

I visited Madrid last year and took images from a food market called Mercado De San Miguel.

here are a few images from my trip. It may help decide what type of fruit I plan to use within my shoot.

Pastels..

The Pastels.

Spring/Summer 2012 is very much about the Pastel Colours.

----------------------------------------------

I looked at the pantone colours for S/S 2012 and created another mood board.

---------------------------------------------------

I created two more mood boards where I looked closely at the different shades of colours collections have used.

Blues, pinks, lilacs and yellows have been the majority of colours.

Researching into pastel colours it reminded me of the macaroons I spotted in London.

------------------------------------------------

I also created these two mood boards below, focusing mainly upon inspiration and colour.
