For Your Inspiration- CHANEL COLLECTION
Collection by Melissa Matkovic
''Glamorous Instincts", April 2012
What inspired me in designing this collection was Mother Nature and it’s flawless natural tones, golds, flora and animal instinct. Though it may seem that each of these prints may overpower one another, I took it back to their one connection, Mother Nature. To this I added a touch of glamour creating the perfect collection for any getaway…..GLAMOUR INSTINCTS..
