Writers have always inspired me. A word, phrase, or an idea from their prose or poetry could take me away on a wild flight. This week, I somehow ended up drawing a spire and then a dress with a ribbon spiraling all the way through it, wrapping around like ivy on a trellis. I suppose it is also because spring is in the air, but the poetry in everything I see really does inspire me.
Today, I will share a couple of sites where writers weave poetic elements into elements of fashion.

These sites have been inspired by poetic elements in life. I believe that if you really look, there is poetry in everything, and it all does flow together. The theme that runs through life is different when viewed by different people. If you do observe those in fashion, they do try to represent something that they see in the world or in the spiritual realm. They express those ideas in their creations or in their programs. Look for a running theme or poetry in the work of fashion.
Finally, I leave you with a song about finding a wonder in life, whether your passion is in fashion or in something else. It is not a new song at all, but it is a classic in my book!
