Colette Spring Palette Challenge: Mood Board


This is my (somewhat late) inspiration board submission for the Colette Patterns Spring Palette Challenge

Grand Palais, Paris, the setting for the Chanel Spring/Summer 2011 Ready-to-Wear show, and the 1961 movie Last Year at Marienbad (which inspired this Lagerfeld’s collection for Chanel) made me want walk the streets of Paris on a sunny spring day, visiting museums and taking a break in one of the city’s beautiful parks. A lazy day I can only dream about right now. So, I decided to translate this dream into a mini-wardrobe...
