It’s a bit of a stretch, but I think I can combine two amusing/interesting tidbits gleaned via DesignTaxi. Two takes on two themes: color and skin. One based on an industry standard. The other based on one of my standards (standard snacks, that is).
The first marks the debut of TWELV Magazine , a gorgeous chevron gown made out of—wait for it—220 lbs of gummy bears!. (The magazine is gorgeous, too, and is available for a special premiere rate of 99 cents. And I didn’t even need encouragement to join its coming out party!)
all together now, “sticky woman, walking down the street, sticky woman … “
My husband said, “I wouldn’t mind taking her to a movie.” If he didn’t love gummy bears and if this wasn’t such an out-of-character remark, I would have been more on the offensive and offended.
And if you think that’s colorful, check out Brazil’s Angelica Dass’ effort to match people’s skin tone to their equivalent Pantone color.
Angelica Dass is ambitiously trying to replace skin tone with spot color.
Dass, understandably has labelled this a “work in progress.”
