US VOGUE : INTO THE WOODS

IT'S FINALLY HERE!

US Vogue, September 2009 Issue.

Whilst researching Red Riding Hood for my NP, I stumbled across some images of the 7 page fashion spread 'Into The Woods'. I felt inspired by this fashion spread and just had to get my hands on it! So I searched high and low over the internet until eventually I came across somebody in Washington selling the exact issue. Thank God!

Here is the 7 page spread that inspires me :)

FAUX FUR

For my negotiated project in my final year at college I have decided to go along with the theme of Red Riding Hood. Every version of the tale includes the big bad wolf so I feel I need to include an aspect of the wolf within my collection. This has led me on the hunt for some really good quality faux fur!

Finally I have come across http://www.fauxthrow.com/! There are many faux fur selections available, from ready made throws, clothing, gifts and fabric by the metre. The throw company give you the opportunity to order swatches of the fabric, so I ordered 6 swatches of faux fur that was either wolf or looked wolfy!

My swatches were delivered to me a few days later and I am very impressed with the quality of each one.

Here are some pics of my swatches!
