Moodboard Beginnings...

As part of our marked work this module, I will need to submit two moodboards based around a chosen colour trend. After look at what is set to be in fashion next year, I decided to look at primary colours, as this is forcasted to be everywhere as the weather turns warmer. Using primary colours as a starting point, I found that the Mondrian dress by YSL became a large inspiration, due to blocking the bright colours (as mentioned in a previous blog post), but as I have developed this idea, I wanted to take the moodboard down the pop art route, using Andy Warhol and comic strips as a main point of focus.

Using this, I have began to work on the moodboard, and created the background of to which I will then digitally stick stuff on top of in photoshop, ensuring it is a mixed media product. Using the YSL dress as a focal point, I decided to create the layout in a grid composition, as this fits the format of the Mondrian paintings, but also allows structure to this crazy, colourful moodboard. I have also used cuttings of pop art drawing and scannings of comic books in order to create the collage-type final piece. It still needs a bit of work, and this is only the beginning, but I wanted to share it anyway.

Enjoy!
