Picasso

Pablo Picasso, Girl Before a Mirror, 1932// Etro, Spring 2012 Runway

When I was looking through Etro's spring 2012 collection a lot of the color choices and thick, bold black lines reminded me of Picasso's cubist-surrealist phase. I chose this particular painting in Pablo's enormous repertoire because it represents (on the most base of levels) the female relationship with clothing and looks. We often don't see a clear or mirrored reflection but rather what we want (or don't want) to see.
