I use watercolor to drew some patterns’ details of 2015-2016 collections, and I discovered that the most important point of this kind of vintage patterns is always repeat the same thing.

Flower 3D concept board

 

I tried to use real flower to make a concept board to show the idea of flower and different personality. I bought some flowers in quite light colour, and I drew different part of faces and combined them together, the original illustration is by Hsiao-Ron Cheng, I chose different part of illustration and combined them to become a face, and use black and white on it. The reason of it is because black and white and ‘colorful’ is quite different things, what’s more, the idea combine different part to become a  face is also to show the idea of different personality.

Floral trend has many different types, such as vintage florals, floral blooms, floral camouflage and comocrea. “Florals dominate comocrea this season, as oversized painterly poppies, spliced dirty repeats and chintzy botanicals drive S/S 17.”
