Wedding colours


Playing with photoshop and selecting colours from the image taken from My Fat Pocket website. mel sent me the link. Perhaps an interesting weaving to be done?

Text taken from the site.
With his background in historical costume and clothing, Lacroix soon made headlines with his opulent, fantasy creations, including the short puffball skirt ("le pouf"), rose prints, and low décolleté necklines. He quoted widely from other styles—from fashion history (the corset and the crinoline), from folklore, and from many parts of the world—and he mixed his quotations in a topsy-turvy manner. He favored the hot colors of the Mediterranean region, a hodgepodge of patterns, and experimental fabrics, sometimes handwoven in local workshops.

There are some fantastic Haute Couture images on the site in this article it is unclear who some of the images belong to. Some are obvious others not so.
