Inspiration prt 1

eeezy peeps!. At times designers (in particular fashion designers) get the equivalent of writers block. Basically the designer is faced with a situation where they find themselves running out of design ideas or even when they do come up with something, it just doesnt quite hit the mark. I know this situation all to well, in fact it happened to me the other day while i was working on some new concepts/designs for some up and coming ranges. At times like these the most important thing a designer needs is inspiration. Inspiration can come in many forms and for fashion designers it could range from anything from art, music, everyday objects or even inspirational people and there success story's. (Above and Below) are a few of the people and things that inspire me.
