OVERVIEW
Five themes of psychological HUMAN EMOTION have been gathered here for you to explore on your journey. This starts by taking you through the mind of the permanently structured in STRUCTURED DOUBT. The following trend chapter leads into a state of mayhem and polar opposite of the previous trend, this is MODERN ANXIETY. After the explosion of color and non-traditional fabric use, I lead you to FLUID COMPASSION where the lifestyle is more fluid and focused on calming rhythms of fluidity of drapery. Then we take calm once more to another level, we bring you to CULTURED OPTIMISM, which allows you to retreat and enjoy the cultural lifestyle differences of other. Lastly you will explore EARTHLY CONCERN, which allows all concentrations to focus on the riches of the earth and pureness TWO

STRUCTURED DOUBT
Structured Doubt is inspired by intense structure and minimalist elements. Structured Doubt is centered around the idea of constant doubt in not expressing one’s self in anything other than shades of black and white. Psychologically, the doubting individuals are too afraid to experiment with anything that is not part of their structured lifestyle. Structured Doubt’s color story ranges from shades of black to white, which keeps the story very minimal.

MODERN ANXIETY
Modern Anxiety is centered around the creative, funky individual. This being may or may not suffer from anxiety, however they may cause others to develop anxiety due to the way they break the rules with color and fabrics. The use of heavy print and bright color, could be considered strangely annoying. The silhouettes are bizarre overall, but also range from a boxy fit to very form fitting. As a whole, this individual is modern and strives to stand out everyday. Modern Anxiety’s color story ranges from pastel blues, indigos, and pinks with some pops of bright over saturated colors.
