Blanche Consorti
[RISD ’09, Apparel Design]


The pieces in this collection, called
Matryoshka
after the Russian nesting dolls, are designed to "stack"
from longest to shortest, building off the idea of layering. Using transparencies,
I applied similar shapes to the garments while keeping scale in mind.
Focus is on the fitted upper half and rounded hips in order to recall
the doll's silhouette. Bright color and pattern was kept in mind as
I chose a rich brocaded and printed silk for the dress. The looks are
finished off with oversized bows that rest under the chin, a personal
interpretation of the babushka scarves.
