I am making a mini capsule collection inspired by birds and birds nests. The color palette will be a twist on primary colors. I will be using velvet and silk wool jersey to ad the perfect about of fuzzy texture. While I was creating this mini inspiration collage and shopping for fabrics
I absolutely could not wait to see them ready to go to their new homes!!

Delia Derbishire and Daphne Oram wore the best clothes of their decade, while inventing both the electronic genre and DJ culture we enjoy today!
I found out about these two ladies a couple of months ago and I have been smitten ever since! I saw a video of how Daphne magically painted the musical waves on a piece of glass and entered into a magical machine.
They both started out working at BBC broadcasting during the late 1950s and early 1960s.
It very interesting they both came into electronic music at the same time.
Delia focused on more surreal science fiction tunes while. She stayed on at BBC making music for Dr. Who, while Daphne left the BBC early opened and created "Oramics" which is all about taking classical elements of music and twisting them into something shiny and new.
I cant believe how timeless their work is, see for your self:
To learn more about their processes and other facts:
Interesting Fact: I met Jean Paul Gaultier in the book shap of the IOC. He was very friendly, and Pierre gave him my card because I was too embarrassed. He was very sweet and complemented my coat, and talked with me about San Francisco and London.
