Black and White.

    There are always 2 opposite elements that exist separately at the same time in the world. Similar as Yin and yang, black & white is the purest and strongest contrast color combination. B&W art presented a classic, decorated style, which you could imagine any colors from it. And black and white outfit always give people a serious but elegant feeling, a great black neat outfit could be suitable of any sexuality. Just like the theme of today, a neat black outfit which was inspired by jewish men's black outfit. The inspirations of fashion designs are all from human's traditional culture, nothing has been created originally without nature and culture's inspirations. People used to say fashion is kind of " Recycle", actually I really think everything in the world is like recycle, include of our life. Recently I realized it is so much fun to record my inspirations and recreated them with my brushes and imaginations again. I used to make my daily inspiration book long ago, but I more enjoy sharing these things on blog- Inspirations are not secret.
