Leifsdottir by Anthropologie: Designer Interview & First Look

At this collection is called the Catalonian Affair and this inspiration started from the work
of Salvador Dali and his released work between light paintings but also his life, his was
quite glamorous, flamboyant personality. And to really get in the mood, I took a trip to
Barcelona and fell in love with the city and I did go see a bull fight. And I did go see a
flamingo dancing so that’s what gave to collection sort of sensual moves. It’s like a life
loving, sensual collection that is sort of ought to spend your life in art. We tried to do a
very form feeding bottoms with the fabrics with lot of stretch for more high-waisted pants
and pull out jackets like this leather one. We made below preferences of the epaulettes
and the bull fighter jacket and more structured pieces.

I think our garments always have texture of our garment have a lot of details so this is in
particularly we were really in to do in fabric manipulation and draping in the soft fabrics.
So lot of recording and pleading, stocking and folding fabrics to create that nice cut to
silhouette in a soft way and then we layer in this painterly bright magenta, print pink
scarlet and this royal blue and I’m just trying to create this very vibrant feeling against
the graphic background.

We have a lot of it lace in a collection as well as this lace-fur type of thing in a little
pieces. We have more sculpture and draping of epaulette type shoulders in soft garments.
We have beautiful buttons that have that old bull Spanish feeling that reproduced from
the empty pieces that really keep a nice touch to your collection. I think that all dress is
going to be really good decision, I think that your friends have beautiful, artistic dresses
in self are going to be the one hand.
