I just finished watching this BBC special called “The Secret World of Haute Couture” to see if it would spark some magical Chanel-inspired promotional item and everyone would scream about how wonderful and exquisite my product is. Yeah I know, wishful thinking here. It did open my eyes to what goes on behind the dress though and the video did help me understand Chanel, along with its competitors, a little better.
There are few ideas that has sprouted from watching the movie, but I’m not sure if they’ll work or not. I need to tweak them a bit I suppose. I’m still trying to figure out what makes a promotional item different from something someone would buy and still have the promo product considered a keepsake.
All in all, I’m pretty sure that I’ll be including feathers in my design (trust me it really makes sense if I plan to go in this direction, which I’m fairly certain I will) and it will be amazing. Just watch.
