Cosmic Love

My latest play list includes Cosmic Love by Florence + The Machine, an ethereal, yet powerful anthem that really put me in the mood when designing Fall '11. Ironically, I had named one of my favorite colors Cosmic, for no other reason than that it just looks like something cosmic. I've been in a "gray" phase for some time now and couldn't resist mocking up a lavender toned gray for the new Fall collection. Black is boring, brown essential, but gray to me is ethereal and romantic. My new Cosmic space-dye color takes on a new dye technique I developed that gives the overall space-dye color a true ground color with "digital" flecks of color. And it reminds me of my new favorite song, Cosmic Love, both sensual and alluring. And now that the song has gone mainstream in the Water for Elephants trailer - a movie I'm now eager to see because the song really evokes the essence of the romantic circus setting (and of course, a little Robert Pattinson doesn't hurt either!) I'm sure when I'm wearing my new favorite ribbed cocoon and fringed scarf in Cosmic this Fall, I'll be humming this Cosmic Love tune and feeling my love for gray (the new black for next Fall.)
