Welcome to the social design: loose lessons from the stylized representation of the social in cinema and print. A blog very often about the interior design, fashion, social manners, and music created for and reflected in vintage cinema and print. Especially from the Sixties and Seventies, especially Italian, and especially from swingin' party scenes. We're awfully big on disco hippies and the OpArt accent here. Guaranteed, of course, to wander off on the occasional tangent into (maybe?) related subject matter, with plenty of tongue-in-cheek commentary for your consideration along the way. Comments are welcome, so please consider yourself invited...

FASHION SHOW FROM "MANON 70" (1968)








#6: CHIRPING BIRDS, LIKE MONEY AND THE COLOR WHITE, MAKE A GREAT NEUTRAL.

From the 1968 film "Manon 70".  Catherine Deneuve's character is taken shopping at a fashion show by one of her rich lovers. Fresh and cerebral. Plus one really has to admire the irony of the late Sixties modeling pose: caught in action yet oddly frozen solid. Emmanuel Ungaro is credited with doing Deneuve's clothes for this film, I suspect he did these for the show as well.
