Joanne's Fashion Source Book




A Source book should give you inspiration, creativity and education. This helps explore all the different avenues in fashion, from tailoring to trends. Everyone has there own style or creative look they are comfortable with. All fashions trends and styles come from some where or era.









I've chosen this picture of Diana Ross in the classic movie “Mahogany” from 1976. The movie was about a fashion designer turned fashion model. Bob Mackie and Diana collaborated the fashion and design colors in the movie. Critics were not fond of the movie in 1970's, but I thought it was sexy and full of creative style. The colors in the film were bright, fun and vibe rent, as the red wine color in her costume. The gown was made out of a lyric blend fabric, displaying the extended fish tale toward the back. From her pose and her expression, this picture only says, “see me love me baby”.
