YSL SPRING ’19

For me, this runway has become a really playful concept and almost a fun way of expanding on the theme of the victorian period etc. YSL has managed to adapt on a specific period by maintaining a certain victorian look – ruffle cuffs, collars, small blazers – but turning it into clear high fashion. The enlarged cuffs and highlights of the white garments remind me on the clouds in the background of the renaissance painting, where small sections of the image is contrasted against the other colours. Additionally, because it is obviously high fashion, the outfits remain fashionable and a lot less “costume”, however this is something i am still worried about as i cant access clothing like this easily therefore having to adapt to clothing that i can afford. Hopefully, by looking into how these designers accentuate clothing like the collars and cuffs in a certain way, i can use this in my own styling to help prevent the outfits turning into costumes.
