Description
Okay so I'm jumping on the bandwagon, because it looked like a lot of fun!
Left to right, top to bottom:
1. J.C Leyendecker - I am incessantly jealous of the way he paints menswear. And men actually.
2. 1920s Glitz - especially the diamante studded heels!
3. Charles Dana Gibson - because his linework is breathtaking.
4. Historic Costume - self explanatory really, but I eat, sleep and breathe costume so it gets four whole squares.
5. Vintage Photos - this one is of Phyllis Dare, she is beautiful.
6. Elizabeth I - (also, Helen Mirren) THE CLOTHES. OH THE CLOTHES.
7. William Morris - because I would very much like to live at Kelmscott and be surrounded by his work.
8. 18th Century Portraits - I really like the colours and tones of old paintings.
9. Wedgewood Cameo Ware - always brings a smile to my face, plus the colours are lovely.
10. Japonisme - amazing style, gorgeous muted colours and delicate patterns = East meets West perfection.
11. =Jumei - her work is amazingly inspiring, in particular her use of colour and tone.
12. Mucha - and Moet too.
13. Band of Brothers - motivational, epic, moving and so, so good to look at (case in point: Doc Roe).
14. Charles Frederick Worth - long live the greatest fashion designer of all time (imho).
15. Arts and Crafts - the interiors, the colours, the shiny shiny lustreware ceramics.
16. *Phobs - because when I am feeling uninspired I like to look at his amazingly well drawn men in uniform expressions.
17. Pearls - god bless oysters.
