Here is a look that I’ve seen here on the streets of Dublin and that I think it´s really cool. the Mod style. it has an appeal to me because of its subculture British origins.
you can get this look if you browse around through charity shops, vintage shops, but this particular shop in the city centre “Carousel” has a little bit of everything for girls! jewelleries, dresses, bags and bandanas, belts, they have a unique design, for the motifs, you wont find it nowhere else.
here are the latest on their web site, really interesting;
Mod Style Inspiration: The Mod Couple Portraits Of Carlotta Cardana.
Posted on January 9, 2014
Modern Mod Style Inspiration
At first glance, you could be forgiven for thinking that Carlotta Cardanas portraits of mod couples are straight out of 1960’s England. In fact, these photographs were only taken in the last three years! This blurring of time is part of why we adore this project. Cardana has taken so much care to place these couples in surroundings that mirror their mod style, and evoke the time and place that mod originated. The surroundings become a part of their style as much as their clothes are. Cardanas photography style – the square format of the photos, the colour palette used, the lighting, all capture a retro vibe perfectly.
Speaking of retro vibes, who can ignore the amazing vintage style inspiration that these couples are? Their dedication to mod style, and also each other, is admirable. It’s so sweet how the couples complement and reinforce each others style. Do you think you could dress like this with your partner? Could you be as committed to a style and subculture as much as these couples are?
We picked out some of our favorites photographs below, but head over to Carlottas website (here) to see the rest of the project and more of her incredible work.
