Working with colours


I initially wanted a sweet pastel coloured palette that was sugary, however looking more into kitsch i realised i needed a few more plastic acid hues such as a bright yellow and neon orange, this adds an added depth into normal pastel colours, which tend to come in year in year out for summer collections. 

Below are my first colour boards, which i then developed into final colour scheme. Some of the boards are not finished as i usually place tape over the top of my designs.


First look at pastel candy colours, felt that they needed an added punch 

Looked into blue/Purple/green colour however i think kitsch has an eclectic mix of many colours and so maybe just a few tones from this board to add to the final hues.

Also looking more into depth of pink tones, felt that having just pink hues in a collection doesn't work for kitsch.

Another board that i felt didn't have the right tones. 

Finally decided on colours, think this works great as i have a mix of bright neons and subtle pastels.
