Do you ever look at something and see an image that probably, no one else sees?
I was actually on Pinterest looking for some stripe inspiration when I came across the first picture and it immediately reminded me of a whale. I know, crazy, but look at the pink image, it could be a fish tail that's up in the air! Well, at least in my imagination :)
I was curious to try and find the dress, and as it turns out, it's from the 2013 Diane Von Furstenberg Fall Collection. The search lead to Style.com where I found a lovely and timeless collection. It of course includes the iconic wrap dress, but in suede. The prints are a little wild, but lots of fun, so take a look.
And for a little more Monday Morning Inspiration, I found this video on the beginnings of the Diane Von Furstenberg brand. It's just a short little 2 minute video, but quite interesting. Take note of the wrap dress that she is wearing in the video and the fact that she is wearing a camisole underneath it!
Wishing you a fabulous start to your week!
May your imagination lead you to unexpected places :)

Such fabulous pieces. Have always loved Diane VF.
ReplyDeleteShe is one of those designers who consistently makes clothes that women love to wear.
DeleteI so agree. DVF's clothes are remarkable, she has never put out a line that I have not liked.
ReplyDeleteI love the giant animal prints. They are a bit OTT but so wearable (I think). That red/brown dress (or is it a jumpsuit) and that suede wrap dress are gorgeous. Xx
ReplyDeleteThat's a jumpsuit. If you have a chance to take a look at the video, you'll see it move. Really gorgeous.
DeleteYep, I see fishes' tails. But then again, it took me a long time to see the bat in the Batman logo; I only saw tonsils and thought it was someone screaming. Is the maroon and pink dress printed or pieced/appliqued? I love the DVF's graphic prints.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad I'm not alone!!
DeleteI have a feeling that the pink and maroon dress is a printed fabric. She does such lovely and fun prints.
The second lady's outfit looks like a spider to me. I bet you see shapes in clouds too, I know I do.
ReplyDeleteDVF are classic and very wearable to real people. Thanks for sharing.
You made me look ;)
DeleteThe first dress is stunning! And I love the way she mixes prints. She has an animal print coat over a different print top. I'd call that daring but it works so well. As a designer, she's had such staying power!
ReplyDeleteDVF designs are so wearable which perhaps is the key to her success. I could see myself in every item.
ReplyDeleteGreat collection. and loved the models. Most looked like they had lunch and were smiling :) I found myself smiling watching them.
ReplyDeleteI too noticed that fact that the models weren't bone thin and that they actually seemed to be enjoying themselves. Wow, what a concept ;)
