The Fantastic Five

 In this post I will be talking about the Fantastic Five. The fantastic five is about the ideas that we came up with when thinking about the theme in which we chose. I chose the theme ultimate black as black is my favourite colour and can be manipulated into having many meanings, but also because it matches with everything. The themes that came to me when thinking about this theme are the themes depicted below.



A theme in which I am in love with is the "Fallen Angel" theme. I am particularly in love with this theme as I am passionate about anything involved with etherial themes and also because I believe in angels and the fallen one. Additionally this concept reminds me of a brand which I am in love with with is "Ed Hardy". The theme of the brand is overall this aesthetic and also the designs are just amazing. Additionally this theme reminds me of Judas hence what comes to my mind is Lady Gagas Judas song and video clip.

My other idea  was anime characters and their sense of fashion like mini skirts, tall boots, fishnets etc. Another idea was a witch theme but do to the collection which I will be making being based on Spring/Summer 2021, it is more of an Autumn/Winter 2021 theme. The other theme I was thinking of was a rise of the dead but it is not close to my style hence it is still a question mark. The last theme that came to my mind was Venom theme. What I was reminded of when thinking of Ultimate Black is the skin of black snakes, hence textured leather which if my collection this term will be sustainable, Bolt threads and fruit faux leathers would be ideal but again this is more of a wintery wardrobe must have.
Overall these are the ideas I came up with but I will decide in my SMART objectives post which one I will be making even though I believe I will be creating a fallen angel/etherial concept.

  1. The fallen angel idea has a lot of potential - you could make follow ups on Gothic art/fashion design, there are a range of contemporary designers working in this area that you could research (have a look at Complex Geometries for contemporary street wear), combine with tattoo imagery and Pre-Raphaelite art (have a look at the Lady of Shallot by John William Waterhouse) if you choose to go down this route.
