Mudpie announce SS13 Trends entitled "Creative Vision"
Creative trend company Mudpie announce the Spring/Summer 2013 trends
- (1888PressRelease) July 27, 2011 - Creative trend company Mudpie publish the three trends that make up "Creative Vision" starting with New Renaissance - inspired by the rich culture of the Mediterranean combined with romance and vintage travel glamour. This decorative and decadent quality is expressed in the graphics and prints direction with scripted fonts and traditional Byzantine imagery of iconic religious figures, combined in a collage-style aesthetic. Soft traditional graphics and prints translate the romantic style that underpins the New Renaissance trend. Watercolour floral and ink bleed finishes inject the trend with femininity while painterly styles are delicately broken up with mixed media, creating a contemporary approach to traditional styles.
The second trend is Avant Garde inspired by the radical youth movements of the 1930s which fuels an aesthetic highly driven by statement graphics and prints in surreal photographic cut 'n' paste styles. Fundamental inspiration is found in Art Deco and Avant-garde movements as well as the Fluxus movement, whose alternative and experimental vision supports the emotive scrapbook aesthetic of the trend. 1930s Art Deco patterns provide the backbone of inspiration to Avant Garde with geometric placements and layered textures key to the female graphics and prints, as well as both digital and analogue collage printing.
A rise in the master craftsman forms the backbone of the third trend Modern Artisan with a revival of traditional artisan skills, prompting a clean and precise aesthetic that dominates the male graphics and prints direction for the trend. Planned and mapped out details are key, creating gridded and defined layouts, incorporating the technical aspect of the trend. Graphics and prints for Modern Artisan are sophisticated and refined with heavy emphasis on typography along with an introduction of traditional embossing and etching techniques that are embedded in an artisan way. Hardware embellishment combines with precise embroidery to echo concepts of craftsmanship.
