Raw Growth Theme Board

Starting point of my research for my mini collection project.

Adobe Kuler

Great Website for developing colour palettes. Epically from photographs or images. Really easy to use. Just create a account and it saves all your palettes which you can make available or private from the public. The only down side is that i can't seem to get a pantone reference off the website, but its easy to work around.

Just a quick example below:
The online program also gives you choices of palette tones
Colourful
Bright
Muted
Deep
Dark
and Custom so you can alter a shade if your not happy with it.

History of the Peter Pan Collar

Another Garment detail research board, focusing on the Peter Pan Collar.
Although the Peter Pan collar is on trend at the moment and seen as a vintage style, most people see the collar to be in its prime during the fifties & sixties, while this time line dates back to 1782.
