DESIGN STATEMENT:
Genre, the lifestyle edit, illustrates your life and manifests all that you desire, the simplicity of design we see and effortless concept development that can be created for ourselves as admirers of design, Genre surrounds the empowerment of women in business, ages from 20-50, following onto my client, Camilla Freemon Topper, Studied at Whitehouse Institute of Design, Australia. Genre is a lifestyle aesthetic created for women who adore their aesthetic, business style, fashion, and overall lifestyle design, Inspired by Camillas Ready-To-Wear Fall collection 2022. Embracing this elegant touch of aesthetic and styling, simplicity in color tones and styling at its simplest yet made to show off a little bit of Character.
Genre embraces the idea that women growing into the aesthetic design and moving through it can explore this ideal lifestyle aesthetic, through the interior, clothing detail snd accessory design, Beige natural tones, complimentary browns, and solid black, I present to you the modern touch of women empowerment in design, from blazers to long skirts as a compliment, the business effect but also the modernized elegance that comes with this lifestyle, with illustrative qualities we demonstrate a character in aesthetic and design, like seen in Camillas clothing. This simple detailing expresses style and character traits.
This idea of looking into the future of design and its impact on women’s fashion today, I knew that creating a different aspect of modernized elegance would capture the attention of stylists and designers, creators and artists, businesses women who adore the simplistic side of simplicity, that it would give them a choice, this idea on how they can improve and be a better artist, stylist for themselves, illustrative elements to show manifestation aspect, a mind settling idea where we see it and want it. Like camellias idea on women are the future, we work and provide for ourselves as a man would. Beauty itself comes from our being, genre is a kind of aesthetic where modern meets simplistic and elegant.
