Medieval Armor Inspires Modern Dresses

11/4/2015

Inspiration for fashion design is everywhere! Most of my work is inspired by nature, architecture, and travel. This time let's take a look at dresses I sketched based on a piece of medieval armor I stumbled upon at the Edinburgh Castle in Scotland.

There are several aspects of this armor that I reference as inspiration for my dress designs. One, the armor has a great deal of detail that beautifully translate into intricate fabric treatment. Second, the silhouette is a universally flattering one with the fitted top and the looser bottom. Furthermore, I like the symmetry in the armor - balance never goes out of style. 

Scroll down to check out my ideas! What do you think? Let me know.
