house of harps skip to main skip to sidebar house of harps something strange this way comes sunday 20 january 2019 pepto pink so admittedly these photos were taken nearly a year ago but i ve had a busy year and i like to think my style defies being too time specific and trend led the blouse i bought many years ago but interestingly does fit into the ruffled asymmetric 80 s tinged vibe we ve seen a lot of recently i bought if for the glorious pewter damask fabric but it has languished largely unworn in my wardrobe due to the awkward elasticated neckline and the fact that i was never quite happy with how it sat when tucked into my normal high waisted skirt skinny trousers so i ve done the unthinkable for me and worn something untucked paired with a pepto bismol pink roll neck sparkly pink socks and green jewellery this look has reignited my love for the blouse asos blouse benetton trousers kg shoes self made and antique jewellery posted by harps at 18 43 2 comments sunday 16 september 2018 tulle bi telli time jump ah remember when the tree was up and frost glittered the landscape ok so it was nine months ago and i haven t posted since late last year but i ve had some time off work and finally am getting round to posting again my excuse it s been a busy year new flat dreamy new job kicking poor mental health in the butt saying goodbye to my childhood home of 25 years as my parents moved out and relocated to an actual different country the trauma is real so here is christmas 2017 when i took the opportunity to wear my 1920s assuit tunic for the first time i toyed with wearing it to a friends wedding but felt it a little dark and perhaps a touch too dramatic i believe the figural pattern indicates a coptic rather than muslim design any experts please chime in as it is a tunic with mostly open sides you can really play around with how you wear it i belted the front section and left the back loose to create a cape effect i also wore it pulled up higher at the front so the v neck didn t interfere with the neckline of my top underneath thus creating a deep v at the back as well as a longer length festive red tights to contrast the tulle and black lace up sandals finished the look off it was a dream to wear though i was perpetually frightened i d rip it 1920s assuit tunic asos shoes posted by harps at 22 16 3 comments wednesday 27 december 2017 marbled mood a rather disco tinged silhouette here weirdly 1970 s for me i guess its indicative of me trying to loosen up and try new styles this blouse was so unusual in its pattern that i managed to overlook the ugly colour way and embrace its bishop sleeved pussy bowed glory the pattern recreates those fantastic feathery marbled papers you find in antique books in shades of muted taupe brown beige from a distance it just looks a shiny pewter though worn with burgundy accessories and purple nails for a jolt of colour vintage blouse m s shoes asos trousers self made bag vintage and handmade jewellery posted by harps at 21 11 1 comment tuesday 7 november 2017 ancient summer summers over so here s a quick flashback to a couple of outfits i never got round to posting both with an ancient greek tinge and a rust black white colour palette including literally the only t shirt i own first up is my unashamedly over worn pleated skirt which i like to pair with monochromatic elements the t shirt is fausto puglisi who is a rather flashy designer not immediately identifiable as someone i would typically be drawn to but i love the t shirts clash of antiquity and neoclassicism transposing a photo realist depiction of the ancient greek statue of discobolus upon modern iterations of the greek key and other border ornaments secondly is the most amazing shirt by vivetta which i treated myself to whilst studying last year i was actually writing an essay on fortuny at the time and reading the autobiography of isadora duncan who famously dressed in free flowing grecian clothing so i felt utterly drawn to the neoclassical theme of the shirts embroidery asos skirt fausto puglisi vivienne westwood bag sixtyseven shoes asos skirt and shoes vivetta shirt vintage bag posted by harps at

volume and definition in a muted colour palette modernised with jolts of yellow cobalt and fuchsia maybe it s because i ve just finished reading heath art and reason but i got major pre raphaelite artistic aesthetic dress vibes most notably due to the generous sleeves relaxed languid silhouette and of course the shirring smocking the girl in the pink dress above surely just walked out of liberty s circa 1897 or out of a walter crane illustration there was an earthy crafty naivety to the collection with touches of raffia and rope embellishment was spare and when used remained within that realm of subdued natural beauty so favoured by early aesthetes print was also largely absent and when it did appear took the form of simple abstracted floral just as aesthetic dress would avoid the gaudy ornate patterns of fashionable victorian dress and interiors naturally this being a designer collection of elevated quality the fabrication is perhaps a little luxurious for our original aesthetic dress proponents whose mission early on was as much a political statement on democracy and women s rights than mere aesthetics of course aesthetic dress off the back of rational dress was one of the first examples of sub cultural style to attempt subversion of the fashionable and societal norm in this case of the habitual encasement of victorian women s bodies within restrictive uncomfortable and unhygienic clothing fashion has relaxed within the current decade and there is evidence of the pin thin ideal losing its grip here roksanda caters to those less interested in flashing a figure attainable by very few but offers a view of fashion that is both comfortable and beautiful without turning to the athleisure trope that has at this point been done to death and clearly never appealed to me those exaggerated sleeves may not be for everyone but her gowns offered the flattering option of gathered natural waists or the looser empire line wear over trousers with heels or with sandals and hair undone the effect is the same relaxed and elegant so would i wear any of it absolutely but of course i d probably ruin the simplicity with a plethora of jewels as is my wont and what is more the pic n mix nature of fashion these days would allow me to do so unlike the era of the aesthetes fashion is no longer based on a single narrative but takes multiple forms roksanda is by no means an anti fashion label i m not sure those exist in any capacity yet clearly she has more than just an aesthetic to thank the aesthetes for all catwalk images from vogue com ot
