Mood Board for Premiere Vision

[Katrina O'Brien]

My new inspirations for my premiere vision collection were amour and a touch of Alexander McQueen. When we went to the Hampton court palace London I fell in love with the paintings of armour on the walls, there were also statues of Romans which sparked my imagination. My research on trends led me to the very dramatic collection of Alexander McQueen, his collection had new interesting cuts and very historically based. Sadly it was his very last collection he ever did in 2010. In order for me to develop my collection I needed to go to the Wallace collection in London. I saw countless examples of armour which fascinated me. The gentleman who is the armour curator is Danielle Sprecher friend’s husband. I wanted to meet him but being a very busy man he had little time, understandably. Other collections I looked at, at the beginning of the year were summer 2011: Dolce & Gabbana Collection Bridal Trousseau, John Galliano, Rodarte, Topshop and Yohji Yamamoto.
