Fashion : Mirror of Your Soul

One of first things we all agreed on when introducing MeJeanne Couture was that fashion is more much assembling cool looking garments together and piecing together a jaw dropping outfit. Our main aim was to chisel personalities on fabric, allows dresses to reflect one's mood, attitude and motives.

In this blog entry, we will whisper something to you that we all should think about, understand, consider, adopt and finally preach. Next time, you are going to a party, gala, or simply going out ask yourself a couple of questions

1. How am I feeling and do I want to convey or hide?

2. What effect do I want to create tonight?

3. Now something more fun "Who am I tonight?"

Long gone are the days when you had to write books, make speeches or even talk in order to make your presence known and tell who you are. Allow your choice of clothing, your make up, the color palette of our ensemble do be your agent, silently negotiating and selling your audience on who you are at that moment.

After deep reflection you will realize that you have the power to convey or be whatever or whomever you want by choosing what you wear and the attitude that supplements it. Do you want to be a vampy siren capable of bringing men to their doom, then wear red, darken these eyes and add to the mix a slow articulation of words and intense high contact. Would you want to suggest that you are a beauty interested in the deeper aspect of life and despite your physical charms, it is your mind and your never-ending thirst for culture that dazzle the minds of your victims, allow lavender to suggest the magnificent and an old fashion hairstyle retouched to appeal to modern eyes?

Fashion, although it can be effortless in its aim or craft is like a quest for virtuosity. Just like a music virtuoso, you work hard to understand the concept, night and day study techniques battling difficulties in order to gravitate toward a highly personal and stylized interpretation of music. At the end when everything has been absorbed, vanquished, you simply wonder: What is it that I feel? What is it that I want my audience to discover in this performance?

I have no doubt that fashion in the same vein, can be understood and mastered and come to represent a highly individual art or the most delightful of weapon. Let's take a disarmingly simple resolution but one that will subsist as you think about it. Fashion will no longer be a passive activity. Putting garments and wondering why we are not getting the attention we deserve, or being baffled by the fact we are getting the opposite reaction that we once sought.

In the next blog entries under the "Fashion: Mirror of your soul" title, I will reveal more and more. Stick with us and you'll have people wonder what you are doing to them while none of your fingers are raised, except in the case of a gentleman delicately submitting his admiration with a kiss on your hand.

Sincerely Yours,

MeJeanne Couture
