Monday Morning Inspiration/A Museum Tour with Lasell College

Over the weekend, Kenneth King posted an incredible link on Facebook to Lasell College. This is such a fabulous resource as they have actually videoed so many of the garments and accessories that they have in their collection. I am just in heaven as the videos show the garment in such a manner that you really see the intricacies of the stitching and the design. Even a trip to an exhibit would not give you the ability to see the garments in this manner. 

I have pulled out 7 videos that I thought you might enjoy. There are MANY more. They are short videos, anywhere from 30 seconds to a little over 3 minutes long. Great for a coffee break. But fair warning, you can easily get sucked in and end up spending a lot of time, so watch a few and save the others for another time. Click HERE to see all the videos that Lasell College has made available.   


















If you have a Facebook account, be sure to pop over to Kenneth King's page and thank him for the link. There are a couple of videos that feature Kenneth, so I'm sure you'll enjoy those.
Have a wonderful week!
Rhonda

  4. These glorious examples of couture excellence are simply amazing. Thank you so much for posting them, Rhonda. The detail, precision, perfection are jaw dropping. But also make sure you all see the example I can watch repeatedly (and have this morning)>>> the exquisite magnificence of Kenneth King's artistry that we've seen for years, but in this video ... well, I'm just drooling over those sheer confections from his incredible imagination .. they almost defy suitable adjectives. I'm in awe of his knowledge, skill, patience and vision. Seeing what is possible, what can be created is so inspirational and motivating.
