I think my brain has finally gone into “fashion overload”. I’m not sure what finally set me over the edge- perhaps the gazillion photos of Spring ready-to- wear images I’ve been looking through recently or maybe it’s my nightly habit of watching hour after hour of Full Frontal Fashion’s coverage of New York’s Fall fashion week. What ever the cause- I’m ready to admit that I’m in need of a couture detox.
Case in point… when I woke up this morning and began researching floral bouquets for a post I was working on for Valentine’s Day I discovered every bouquet I liked had a fashion reference….have I gone completely mad… or do you see it too?
Lavender cool water bouquet from Eco Bouquet and Prada
Assorted Tulips from Pro Flower and Louis Vuitton
100 blooms of Peruvian Lilies from Pro Flowers and Carolina Herrera
Valentine Roses by Jane Packer from 1-800-Flowers.com and Alexander McQueen

I thought this was a fun post that Julie wrote! As I was reading it, I thought one of my dresses fit well into this idea of bouquets having a fashion reference. So, I came across a bouquet, from 1-800-Flowers.com, which seemed to have a reference to a design under my label, Isolda Couture.
