GO FAUVE
(STYLING INSPIRED FROM FAUVISM ART MOVEMENT)
Fauvism was the first avant-garde art movement of the 20th Century. Spearheaded by a trio of young, Paris-based painters – Henri Matisse, André Derain and Maurice de Vlaminck – it was characterised by intense, expressive, non-naturalistic colour, along with loose brushwork and simplified forms. Colour, in short, was completely set free.
Fauvism also had an influence on the fashion industry. Sonia Delaunay and her husband Robert Delaunay who was a painter, brought a great deal of colour and vibrancy to the art and fashion world. They both had a love for bold patterns and vibrant colour schemes. Her designs were popular within the French film industry, with actresses including Nancy Cunard and Gloria Swanson who loved the varied colours and bold designs which made them stand out.
