The Fashion Collaborative

...where I take a fashion photograph and use it as the inspiration for an interior scheme...

Today's scheme is courtesy of the stunning Desert Mermaid fashion shoot (photographed by Nick Hudson for Cosmopolitan) featured on one of my all time favourite blogs, Dustjacket Attic.

THE IMAGES:





THE INTERIOR SCHEME:

The key elements of this scheme are butter yellow, milky aqua and cream with dashes of pale coral and slate.  I chose a beautiful range of different textured fabrics that mirrored the gentrified retro vibe of the fashion shoot.  



Carpet: Belgian Tweed Sisal (Natural Floor Covering Centres)
Laminates (L-R): Carbon Micro, Fossil, Truffle Lini and Belgian Oak (Polytec)



Paint (L-R): China White, White Watsonia, Harts Grey, Cantiga (Dulux Paints)


Fabrics (L-R): Faconne (Design Tex), 10705 Tatami (Mokum Textiles), Sarno Mist (Warwick Fabrics), 8172 Barcode 323 Neon (Loop), 10207 De Rosine 011 Pearl (Mokum Textiles), V 2957-203 (Design Tex)
