Explanation‌ With Carolina Herrera’s collection looking as it had just come out of the garden I thought that incorporating bees was only natural. With the decline of bees in the past years the American Beekeeping Federation is orientated towards helping local beekeepers and the state of the honey bee. I wanted the backdrop of the window display to be just as playful as the clothing from the collection. The colors that I used for the honeycombs were some of the same colors seen in a lot of the clothes. As the background color I chose to paint the wall and floor blue because of how bees are attracted to that color. The garments that I chose to be displayed in the window were some of the more extravagant pieces, with big flowers and exaggerated prints. These were clothes that I believe capture the essence of the collection.
