STORE WINDOW/ COMMERCIAL STYLING
(School project 2019)
Collections: PURPLE RAIN, SPACE ODDITY & BEALLARA PURPLE HAZE ORCHID are a variation of three different sets of outfits within one theme/collection.
I took inspiration from my all-time style and music heroes for these three collections: Prince, David Bowie & Jimi Hendrix. I wanted to play a tribute to their fearlessness and androgynous style. I believe they opened the door for cultural change that we also observe in fashion.
PURPLE RAIN COLLECTION
I picked the color purple, which isn't considered a masculine color for menswear, and played with the idea of using "feminine" fabrics and patterns. In this collection, I was inspired by the 60s, 70s, and 80s fashion trends.
For the first set of outfits, I used a Buffalo hat from Vivienne Westwood's Autumn Winter 1982-83 collection called 'Buffalo Girls (Nostalgia of Mud) as a theme element.
The 80s hip-hop, street style-inspired outfits. The joining element was a Kangol hat.
The 70s and 80s fashion inspired set.
SPACE ODDITY COLLECTION
The sets in this collection were inspired by David Bowie and the romantic take on cosmos and space.
I picked an oversized retro astronaut helmet for the theme element.
I picked a plastic over-top bra for the joining element and a helmet as a theme item for the second set.
The third set, David Bowie-inspired "Lady Stardust." I used stars as the theme element.
BEALLARA PURPLE HAZE ORCHID COLLECTION
Beallara Purple Haze is an orchid named after Jimi Hendrix.
The inspiration for this collection was a bit different take on "Flower Power." Jimi Hendrix had his breakthrough in the UK, so I wanted to nod to British gentleman fashion but keep it playful and not ordinary looking.

Firs set: casual "flower power," looks for a man.
Jimi Hendrix loved the orient and used to wear beautiful kimonos. In the second set, I created a look for the traveling businessman, adding kimono in place of a formal blazer.
Third set: gentleman "flower power" looks.
