Whilst carrying out research into design inspirations and Dadaist artworks, I continously worked on picking up ideas to develop my colour palette. Lots of the works included peaches, beiges and golden brown so I wanted to obtain a good range and balance between these, and when combined with black and the darkest charcoal grey, will act as the base neutrals that all Miu Miu collections rely on. The rest of the palette will consist of dark reds and oranges as seen from previous collections and within artist's work, moving through to greys and teals on the colder end of the spectrum. To highlight and exaggerate the schitzophrenic nature of Miu Miu's brand philosophy, injections of warm yellow saffron and ultra violet will keep the Autumn/Winter 09/10 colour preditions up to date and fresh. The palette has Pantone references marked on so the correct hue can be universally selected in industry.
Also incorporating patterns within the designs was a key requirement of the brand so I have developed a palette of patterns to be used accordingly. The artwork from the Dada period relied heavily on simplistic and graphically strong linear drawings, collage techniques and the use of text, all of which feature in my patterns. Out of the collection, 9 outfits will featue an element of pattern, the ratio calculated from previous Miu Miu collections.
