The Empire State Of Fauve Podcast
Hey hey, I'm back with another episode of the Maison Fauve couture podcast ! In this video, I'm going to tell you how I came up with this season's Fauve woman.
Empire State of Fauve, couture inspirations
In this type of podcast, I like to describe the inspirations, the universe I immersed myself in to work on the collection. I detail the common thread and try to organize the ideas and images I had in my head. It's like a story I immerse myself in, which will revolve around an ideal wardrobe and how I make it my own.
For this winter, I wanted clothes that would make a statement, a way of being that we assert through what we wear and our outfit choices. I imagined an active, urban woman who moves quickly and thinks big. And the couture inspirations followed suit.
Bringing your ideas to life: the collection shoot
My muse for the season was New York. But how could I capture this vision without crossing the Atlantic?! I managed to find the perfect location in Montpellier: Pierresvives . Highly architectural, with impressive dimensions, between concrete, glass, and steel, this place allowed me to tell my story. And as always, photoshoots are also a team effort (and what a team!). I tell you all about it in the video.
From desire to clothes, let's talk about patterns!
The last part of the video will be dedicated to the presentation of the 5 patterns of the collection: the Soho wrap dress/blouse , the Chelsea pleated blouse , the iconic Skyline shirt (yes, it's my favorite, I'm showing favoritism ;)), the Brooklyn palazzo pants and the perfect Manhattan blazer .
Using the fabrics I worked on, I'll detail each model and tell you more about their history, how the clothes were designed, and all the pretty details that are offered to you. And the different variations of the patterns will allow you to multiply your sewing projects and vary the difficulty and sewing technique.
Although this collection offers some fairly technical models, video tutorials will accompany you for an easy sewing moment. If you are looking for a winter wardrobe to sew and love for a long time, this is the place to be. You can complete your outfit with the pretty Pam coat from the In The Mood For Fauve collection , it goes very well with all these beautiful people ;)
As you can see, there are a lot of elements covered in this sewing podcast hihihi, so I hope you enjoy discovering the Empire State Of Fauve universe and I'll see you very soon because a new episode dedicated to Maison Fauvefabrics and pretty buttons is in the pipeline!
