Daphne Guinness is one of the most prominent inspirations of mine from my collection of 'alive' inspirations. Part of the reason why I love her so, is she isn't a trend lover. She doesn't go through fads or phases more like the gradual building of who she sees as herself.
"...isn't this just like liquid sky"
Wearing something more then once is never an issue with Daphne. For example, although she wears some of her shoes or parts of outfits way more then once, it becomes apart of her persona, character and the image she is becoming through the use of repetition. Becoming sort of superhuman, Guinness wears clothing to become something. Her view on fashion and clothing isn't based on the price or trend it is just a manner of decorating the body.
And this is one of the biggest reasons why she inspires me, along with her love for costume jewellery:"The thing about jewellery, it doesn't have to be real".
So much about this woman is inspiring, so much behind the outfits. And a lot of meaning and thinking is put behind her work.
J'adore
