“Fantasy” by Beatrice Brandini  

Fashion Show S/S 2014

I decided to talk about pattern because I’ve always loved, in fact stripes, checks, polka dots, flowers, geometric, abstract … are a wonderful way to enrich and customize a shirt, a skirt, a dress. But mainly because for the next Spring Summer (but will remain so for the ‘ Fall / Winter, from what we’ve just seen on the catwalks of New York and Milan), they are, pattern, the real protagonists in fashion.

Blythe 

“Brigitte” by Beatrice Brandini

I’ve always been mad of Blythe dolls created in America in 1972 but withdrawn from the market after only a year because they are considered ill-suited to girls, almost disturbing, perhaps for the expression of the eyes that change color and nuance, I’d say maybe even for a style and elegance that fits most mothers to daughters.

 “Les Miserables” Poster 

“The Candidate” Beatrice Brandini

“Lovely” by Beatrice Brandini

“My favorite kisses”

I do not want to be too “sweet” (with the passage of time or you will become more arid or more sweet , emphasizing, perhaps, our true nature …), but I would like to wish a Happy Valentine’s Day to all those who love and are lucky enough to be loved. Read more →

Milano Unica, Newsletter Spring/Summer 2015

Sketch Beatrice Brandini

I had already talked about the trends for Spring – Summer 2015 by developing Mood Board, thanks to the Fair of Milano Unica who had invited me to preview a meeting of trends (see post of November 17, 2013 ) .

This season is the added value of the main theme, which is defined the culture as the value added, the culture that creates well-being. A value to be capitalized, which I fully support, and that should be our main strength, crisis or not. That is the awareness of the unique things that we do, that the whole world appreciates and sometimes envy, sometimes we do not quite believe it or not do anything to enhance them, also thanks to the latter years of the wrong costume, which stated that “with the culture did not eat …. ” Read more →
