Summer Glory: What's the Color Story?
The spectrum of hats were fabulous and colorful at the royal wedding, as a long time fan of hats, it is quite brilliant they are now “back in style.” With all the British influence lately, it is appropriate to have a UK inspired title, and Oasis evokes memories of summer from the mid to late 90s. When each piece and an entire line is reminiscent of a certain theme, season, or place, fashion designers create a color story and identify a palette of colors to represent it. A great feature of color stories is the ability to mix and match many items to create an entire wardrobe. Color stories are like art, the image was created by the artist’s inspiration then a viewer perceives and appreciates where the artist was coming from, as well as relates it to personal experiences. — » Read More: Summer Glory: What's the Color Story?
A Detailed Evolution
The smallest details make the most significant differences. If a golfer makes the slightest adjustment to his or her swing, it could have a major impact on the outcome of the game. The same is true with apparel and accessories. Stitching can change the life of the shirt, whether it stands the test of time or falls apart. Cheaper is not necessarily better because if a shirt is half the cost, it usually lasts half as long, forcing the consumer to buy twice the amount of shirts. It ends up being more cost effective to purchase high quality apparel made well from great fabrics. Another instance, tags on the back and sides of shirts. They are extremely itchy and annoying so one is forced to remove them, but not before memorizing the washing instructions. Companies such as Catwalk and Antigua use screen-printing turning their logos into artwork, a better option than tagging. Some may say this is a princess and the pea way of thinking; au contraire, people favor one brand over another based on one feature. It is not too much to expect to have it all: comfort, fashion, and function. — » Read More: A Detailed Evolution
