Be inspired by runway looks

A quote from Marcel Proust—”It is only women who do not know how to dress that are afraid of colors”—preceded a brief statement from Alexis Mabille about “the science of color” and energy as therapy. His show certainly promoted a fearless approach to color blocking. Each outfit was monochrome, from brightest red to palest blue, and each model’s face was painted the same shade as the enormous tissue flower mounted on her head.

But the real inspiration for the show was anything but pseudo-science. Mabille was inspired by a photograph of iconic model Lisa Fonssagrives on a beach, her face suffused with pink from the sunlight coming through her umbrella.-Tim Blanks STYLE.com
