"London's Olympic Glow Is Undimmed." This article discusses the correlation London designers have made with this summers Olympics'. In particular designer Christopher Bailey featured a hat collection that displayed the same metallic tones as London's opening ceremony. He also designed a trench coat with handbags that portrayed the same Olympic like theme. Bailey was searching for a way to bring London's international heritage into the fashion world.
Before reading this article I would have never thought to incorporate the Olympics into fashion. I found this article very interesting an beneficial to my blog. This article allowed me to open mind to new creative ideas for fashion that I did not think were possible. An Olympic inspired collection..who knew? I think originality is key and fashion has very little boundaries in terms of what certain pieces stem from. I hope that I can be inspired from things such as this and incorporate it into my everyday apparel.
