Floral Media - Dior Tokyo 2017 - The Show Video

This week on 'Floral Media' - I'm featuring a short video showing a Dior fashion show that took place in Tokyo - a couple of days ago. You might ask - what does fashion have to do with flowers? Well, watch and enjoy!

I'm always fascinated when I see example of how much designers, artists and craftspeople are inspired and influenced by nature - and most of the time it's mainly flowers.

I have previously shown you videos of fashion shows where both the stage and the clothes has a floral concept.

Here and here.

Enjoy your flower arranging and have a fabulous and floral Monday!

Thank you for visiting 'Of Spring and Summer' - I will be back later in the week with more floral delights.

I'm looking forward to seeing you back here then.

Floral Media - CHANEL Haute Couture Spring-Summer 2015

I usually don't feature fashion on my blog - but our daughter who is a make-up artist, mostly working in film and television but she also does fashion shoots, pointed me in the direction of Chanel's latest Haute Couture Spring - Summer 2015 collection - because she thought I would like all the flowers.

Of course its not real flowers but I thought this fashion show was so much fun I couldn't resist showing this short video. This clip is 6 minutes long but there is also a much longer version on Youtube if you are interested. 

The fashion show takes place in a spectacular structure that is made to look like a very large conservatory or greenhouse. It's round and in the middle are lots of flowers - but I'm not going to tell you what happens as that is part of the show!!

The designer Karl Lagerfeld says in an interview that he was inspired this time by flowers both in colour and form so a lot of the clothes have added mostly fabric flowers.

Here is another short video showing the flowers in more detail.

I love a lot of the other little details as well - the make-up, the plaited hair finished with a flower, the loosely knitted beanie hats and the flat boots - yes, no heels!

What a crazy world - but so inspirational and so much fun!

Have a Wonderful Floral Day!

See you later in the week.

xoxo
