Not only is a great homage to Mucha, but it was also a fantastic inspiration for accessorising!
The Homage to Mucha photoset can be seen below!

The Mucha Mook made me very much want to wear my floral wreath again, so I just put on something simple to go with it! I got this Deicy dress from my friend's mother for Christmas. It's so lovely and long, and it makes me feel nymph-like. ◠‿◠

Thank you so much to Piperita for the Liebster Blog prize she gave me! I feel very honoured and happy to receive it! (I will have to get around to sharing the award to others asap! (≧◡≦) )
This is a very skinny blog post, but it was mostly to share the Mucha-inspired images.
Wouldn't it be awesome if there was a fashion subculture called Mucha Girl (ミュシャガール)? I could imagine some very pretty outfits in that style (almost a spinoff of etherial mori girl clothes)!
Thanks for reading!☆
I had no idea there was a homage to Mucha mook, now I'll have to pick it up! I would really love a Mucha girl style too, it would be amazingly pretty though it would have a very strong likely hood we all would need very very long hair. (๑￫‿ฺ￩๑)
ReplyDeleteAH! alphonse mucha is one of my favourite artists! the art deco/nouveau style is so lovely. i think your outfit really has the organic feel of those pretty ladies he depicts :)so pretty!
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately it isn't just Wonder Rocket. One Piece Senmonten Cawaii (http://www.rakuten.ne.jp/gold/onepi-c/) also closed their real store in December (I went all the way there only to find out that they had closed 2 days prior to my arrival), Freegia closed down one of their two stores and Sango transformed from Mori Girl style to Ethno style clothes. It really seems to be a dieing trend in Japan. There aren't also really any new releases of Mori-themed magazines too. Mori Girl Papier, Mori Girl Valon - they never had any new issues past 2010. The The Mori Girl Lesson book still had an issue in October 11, so maybe there will be more, I am not sure as they were never released often.
ReplyDeleteBut about 2 years ago the trend wasn't just something people would either follow hardcore or not at all, like maybe Lolita style - You could see a lot of Mori influenced clothes everywhere and mixed up in all kinds of other styles. I think it was just generally considered "in" all over Japan. I even have a Popteen from 2009 that features a lot of Wonder Rocket clothes.
There are still a few stores, especially online stores, that still focus on Mori fashion, but I think they are niche stores now.
I am a bit sad to see this development, but who knows how it will continue.
I love Mucha and liberty in general!!!
ReplyDeleteYour outfit is adorable, that dress is a dream! I love the fairytale aspect of mori fashion the most :D
Thank you for linking me ^^ I'm happy you liked the prize.
