Inspirations

I spotted these photos from 1974 L'Officiel magazines. My brother and I were brainstorming on our concepts for our final shoot in our styling and photography classes. I also wonder if Photoshop existed in the 70s...

As we are living on a fast paced life, we honestly have little time to switch looks from casual to formal. In addition to this, we are looking for pieces which is more flexible and more comfortable most of the working population commute their way around the metro.
As this year's trend is going towards the Gucci 70's, this ensemble is looking at sexy bohemian print but refined by silhouettes of the 60's A-lined skirts. The fabric shows a semi-jacquard texture on cotton-linen print for a more modern touch. The lace sculptured on the side seams emphasized the curves and added a touch of elegance to the wild print. The bustier top can be paired off with jeans for a more rugged look while the skirt will create a sense of creativity during board meetings or product presentations. Statement accessories or sexy wedge booty sandals will spice up the evening glamor.

Unfortunately, I was unable to grab a copy since I found out about this 2 days after it was published. Anyway, I can see the credits more clearly here than the previous one. The best thing about this is that it was published in color! Thanks again :)
