INFINITE CHARM: BUTTERFLIES INSPIRED FASHION

Butterflies in fashion, such dreamy, exquisite winged creatures always get the front cover with its elegant appearance on runways. Butterflies never failed to inspire haute couture designers with its endless diversity of mystical patterns, uncountable variations of wings and the intense combination of colours. Although, nature infused, butterfly inspired fashion occasionally associated with summer and resemble of motifs from childhood wonderlands, however it appears when it’s about bringing natural elements into fashion butterflies are always remain the star of the show.

Not only that, notably since the pandemic, butterflies are living their re-emerging moments again in fashion as butterflies symbolises hope, it is a metamorphosis, a transformation where we shed the old so we can welcome a new phase.

I don’t think there has ever been a time where butterflies weren’t present, beyond high end tailored garment making and mainstream. fashion, butterflies spring time vibe also make its appearance in home decor, like wall stickers and elegant Herendi china bone porcelains, face paints, parfume bottles, hanging chandeliers creating an artistic drop scene or children’s Halloween’s costume and many more. It always seem to be hit.

Since butterflies are more than just a trend it could be utilised in many creative DIY fashion makes, can add as a great source to million sewing or dress-making projects with its happy colourful vibe.

We hear more and more about the shortage of water, we didn’t think a few years ago that certain countries would have to buy water from another nations so they can have access to the source of life. In order to contribute to the change and slow down mindless consumerism and waste in fashion industry we should use our creative side and get used to thinking outside of the box.

We can create with our two hands from material are already produced and in circulation, reuse and recycle instead of keep adding to the mess. By this we are not just helping the Planet, but also able to express our personality whilst customising our crafts, making it unique just the way we imagined it.
