Inspiration Book : Pages 33 &34

Ghosts and Witches :
Sure I could say that I'm posting these pages in  honor of Halloween, (Happy Halloween!!!) but who am I kidding. These have some of favorite things, namely creepy fashion. Not necessarily Gothic, because really, if you look at the white dress, it's not Gothic at all - but it is undeniable creepy. It has kind of a shroud look. I just love the way the sheer polka dot fabric is pulled across the stiff crisp white underneath.
As I was building this page I saw it go from just pretty uses of black lace, to a nod to the creepy and mysterious. The inclusion of the Gothic aesthetic into couture still surprises me when I see it, and I still love to be surprised by what I see.
