Ethnic Fashion Curation on Tumblr
Have a look at this month Tumblr curation featuring ethnic and ethnic inspired fashion and costumes from Europeana Fashion Archive!
Fashion always had a fascination with the exotic. It is not only as a source of inspiration, but is a way through the otherness, the foreign. It can be a travel in the Persian inspired world of Paul Poiret’s “Thousand and Second Night” ball, or in the fierce Africa of Yves Saint Laurent’s 1967 collection, or into the frozen Russian-Balkan folklore of John Galliano’s AW 2009/10 show.

Sometimes a synonym of wealth and lush, with its rich embroideries and bright colored details, or that of a dogmatic reverence to a rigid monochromatic spiritualism, ethnic costumes got through the history of fashion and still they are present in nowadays catwalks. It’s never about copying, it’s always about a feeling or a way to see things, which is translated in the designer collection to bring freedom, freshness and a break up with traditional aesthetics.
