Inspiration Source Of Designers: Recommend Plants, Flowers And Printing Patterns From Tradition To Present

Let us feel the healing power in our busy daily life.

No matter what era, women can hardly resist the beauty of flowers. Flowers mean the beauty in full bloom. Women have a natural liking for flowers and desire to have them, regardless of age.

As for the origin of flower patterns, most people believe that they come from the East. With the trade entering the West, the silk and clothing with exotic flower embroidery are often expensive and can only be purchased by the nobility.

However, it was not until the 19th century that this special embroidery began to be popular in the West. Garment manufacturers reduced production costs through simpler flower pattern printing, and enabled more ordinary people to use clothes made of this flower fabric.

Before that, during the 17th century, flower patterns also appeared in Persian clothing. At that time, most of the flower patterns were decorated with tulips, pomegranates and vines, which were carefully designed and woven with velvet. These printed fabrics also entered the West with merchants at that time, enriching the fabric style.

In the 18th century, printed cotton cloth from India was popular in the West. This kind of cotton cloth was printed with multi-color block printing patterns, and the manufacturing process was a mystery to Britain at that time, so it was popular.

In the Victorian era of the 19th century, sunflowers were also integrated into fabric printing, thanks to William Morris' description of sunflowers, which made the public discover this simple and elegant flower.

Nowadays, all kinds of flowers have already become the source of inspiration for designers. They not only appear on the clothing in the form of plane printing, 3D printing and other diversified forms, but also integrate with accessories in a more simulation and unconstrained form. People can see the attitude of vigorous life from the flower elements, and also feel the healing of nature.

In the spring and summer of 1993 series, John Galliano combined flowers with exaggerated and strange horn hairstyles, presenting us with a stylish girl with a perverse personality but full of arrogance.

Maria Grazia Chiuri showed plants and flowers in the beige strapless dress in the form of embroidery in her first high set series designed for Dior, bringing the natural theme into the high-end clothing, which is bright and publicity.

The brilliant 3D flowers are the sharp modeling tool on the red carpet for girls. Lizzo, who just won the annual production award at Grammy with About Damn Time, appeared on the red carpet in a champagne gold dress dress. The matching orange floor length gown was eye-catching, and countless blooming three-dimensional flowers were loud and eye-catching, which perfectly highlighted the shape of the whole body.

It is also a 3D printing element, but Song Qian has a unique style. The lavender strapless dress outlines the sexy figure curve. The layered tulle three-dimensional flowers appear gently on the chest and cuffs, like a violet hanging from a vine. It is not too ostentatious, but dreamy and beautiful, like a princess's romantic utopia.

They are all strapless dresses, and Chen Turin is even more full of ethereal air. The bodice and tail long skirt is covered with three-dimensional flowers woven with gauze, which are puffy and soft like white clouds. Chen Turin who is in it is unforgettable like a flower fairy.

After a season of running in, creative director Matthieu Blazy restated the brand classic in his personal language in Bottega Veneta. This season, he built a casual middle class wardrobe, showing his pursuit of exquisite craftsmanship in a seemingly low-key and simple design. The neatly cut white strapless skirt is combined with the leather three-dimensional flower decoration, which not only has rich layers, but also depicts an independent but also beautiful female image for us.
