Those colours remind me very much of Dries Van Noten's latest collection.
You have a special eye for art, gius.

I love Schiele's use of colours in clothes.

^ Schiele is the absolute master of line. I hope to draw even remotely close to his talent one day.

thanks :p

i just realise someone in my draping class made this.. sort of by accident
http://pics.livejournal.com/gogm/pic/003d0bb5

the "ruffle" on her waistband, at the side
she was using a fabric cut like a half circle
and as she draped it, easing it into the waistband it did the same drapes.. was very nice ^^

if anyone's interested in making it.
