Rococo Inspiration

Pinterest again for initial visual research is one introduced me to the movement of Rococo. Rococo although being a movement for art, furniture and clothing in the 18th century has now been transferred to all aspects of design in the twenty first century 'Rococo Return' movement. The movement similar to avant garde, looks at high fashion, historically referenced styles, which is something I would like to transfer to the characteristics of Georgiana. Below are my Pinterest boards which I found most inspiring.

 The height of the hair commonly reflects the historical contexts of the images, but within a much less intricate style. This paired with a beauty make-up is something I would be able to develop dependant on which characteristic I am focusing on at the time.

 The idea of lust and passion is one that is received well within a pink colour scheme, and an accentuated makeup on the cheek is a subtle way to include a modern colour palette without removing the historical context.

The gambling theme is to use a much more vivid colour scheme, green potentially will work for the representation on money. Using red and black is a little too familiar, and also represents danger and death in some circumstances. Roulette also was not played in the 18th century! I would like to look at creating wigs potentially with slightly less height than some of the images here that have required a cage, and make it a very beautiful, sophisticated photoshoot.
