SPRING/SUMMER 2013

The spring is on it's way, at least here in Gothenburg Sweden and at Modéerska Huset! Most of the spring collection is online and the online shop has got a face-lift! Angry dogs fighting with smug cats, squirrels lost in love and space and a sulking bird in a fantastic fairytale forest.... this is the spring collection 2013 - it's all about feelings. Enjoy!

CPH KIDS

Today is the last of three days at CPH Kids fair in Copenhagen. I'm exhibiting Modéerska Huset's spring/summer 2013 collection. I will soon let you all have a proper introduction to all the angry dogs, smug cats, cross birds and confused squirrels lost in both love and space, that crowd the collection.... As usual it's been a lovely fair, but right now I'm longing for my darling-monster-kids at home! 

SPRING/SUMMER 2013

I'm finally getting down to drawing the next collection: S/S13... though I'm under so much stress. I have been given a deadline from my producers: everything must be finished and sent to them by the 21st of May (not even 2 weeks left...) This is to enable them to finish and send me the samples in time for the CPH Kids fair in Copenhagen 9-11th of August. So yesterday and today I worked on the colours.
I love working with the colours (next to drawing the patterns this is my favourite task)! This is my method: I put together some pictures that I feel strongly about and then I select colours from these photos/pictures. It can be pictures of anything at all. I'm constantly collecting pictures. Below's my unfinished colour-collage and approximate colours for S/S13. Next step is to make a colour-chart of these colours in Illustrator so that I can start applying them to my designs and patterns. So far I call the S/S 2013 collection CROSS....
