Pastelle Smoke/ Mood Board

Here is my first Mood board showing my art direction and colour palettes.
I am using smoke to evoke my fashion still life story and this board is showing my colour inspirations.

Oysters and Smoke

Photographer Unknown, Found in a newpaper article.

I love this image also to inform my narrative and story idea, I was thinking of doing an image with closed oysters with this smoke idea to create the ghostly feel I was going for.

Nicolas Menu- Still life/Oysters


When looking into oysters from my fashion referencing and art direction, I found this interesting Photographer called Nicolas Menu. It looks like he has used oysters in water and incorperated jewelery into the image, I think this is really affective!
I love the colour direction and the hole overall image.

This is going to be my main direction as I feel the colour, mood and look goes back to all of my images and earlier research.

Oysters

I found this image on WGSN and was drawn in by the colours as they are perfect for my hole direction and mood, then after looking at it a while I thought it looked like an oyster! Then i have started to think about using oysters in some way, maybe painting them or spray painting them in these colours and using this image as my main inspiration.
Image from WGSN, Love the ghostly feel with the whispey material. 

A trend and theme off WGSN that create a mood, the pastille colours and again this ghostly and misty feel.

LOVE this, the mist and the gloomy feel is perfect, this is the sort of feel and mood i want to create.


Inspiration



These images are my own photography, they were taken for a trend board in the first year, I have chosen to look at them now for there colours and technique, I love the dried paint on the skint and the eye make-up.

Love cold icy blue image of model. 

All these Moodboards have inspired me and give me a good colour direction. I feel its all about the texture and colour, its about the hole theme and tone.
