Spring by Bonbon

the inspiration boards

some hints

The inspiration sheets for the 2010 Spring and Summer Collection up above. See P's pretty cupcakes up there taken in her parents amazing apartment?!
The new collection is based on layering and building, tribal ornamentation and traditional hand techniques. Mostly Vanessa and I came at the collection with ideas about how to create elemental pieces that become part of who you are and whoever you become. I figure if I start with that ambition, the message might come out in the pieces. Coming to you live and in celebration of welcoming Spring officially, Saturday. (Notice how I have now made myself accountable? A woman's mag told me how to do that).
(If you find one of your photos and I haven't given you credit please let me know. I sometimes grab images so quickly I forget where I found them...apologies.)
