This week I am promoting designs by the extremely talented Melissa May. Her line, Incroyables, is an amazing synthesis of girly ruffles and flounces with edgy punk vibes. I know Melissa personally, and the amount of talent in this woman is phenomenal! How she comes up with her ideas I haven’t a clue… I doubt anyone could understand what goes on in her brilliant mind.
My current obsession:
From her site:
“The Incroyables were a subculture of men and women that developed after The French Revolution. They dressed in wildly eccentric clothing as a way to celebrate the return of individual freedom. They mocked popular culture with clothing, which is what Incroyables by Melissa May is all about!
Incroyables by Melissa May is a girly rock ‘n’ roll company that draws its inspiration anywhere from punk culture to girly girls to 60s mod. Specializing in day and party dresses, Incroyables by Melissa May is a limited-run company- meaning you will never have to worry about wearing the same thing as the girl down the hall because only a handful of each item is created. All pieces are handmade right here in the U.S. and priced to be affordable for all ages. Wear it to a concert or to school- just wear it with attitude! And remember- it is not just a phase!”
Check out her website http://www.myspace.com/incroyablesbymelissamay to view other one of a kind pieces, pictures from fashion shows, and her wonderful runway collection for Frock Out: Independent Designers Challenge, Denver, Colorado
Her designs are sold at She She, The Fabric Lab, Fancy Tiger, and Buffalo Exchange in Denver.
Thank you so much Bekah! What inspired you to do this?
