A Start With Art Project 333 Wardrobe – Ornamental Composition for Social Spaces #14 by Kamrooz Aram

August 20, 2018

It Didn’t Happen All at Once…

She really loved the painting from the first time she saw it…

1. Ornamental Composition by Aran

But it kept coming back to her mind… She made it her cell phone wallpaper… And eventually she decided to use it as her inspiration for Project 333!

2. Ornamental Composition with style guidelines and color palette

She knew that she already had lots of black clothes to get a solid wardrobe start…

3. Core of 4 garments in black

cardigan – Vince; black silk top – Eileen Fisher; black pants – Eileen Fisher; jeans – Kut from the Kloth

She felt that she really wanted something pretty, something dressy for this fall. So she chose a silk blouse, and a soft skirt…

4. 4 black garments for a Project333 Wardrobe

sweater – Caslon; silk blouse – L’Agence; corduroy pants – Lands’ End; skirt – Lands’ End

Then the fun starts – shades of coral and green!

5. 4 accent shirts and sweaters in shades of coral and green

blush blouse – Uniqlo; red sleeveless top – Uniqlo; green sweater – Uniqlo; green shirt – My Pair of Jeans

But how to finish? She found the absolutely perfect floral top, and a cardigan that included her soft accent color with black… a little velvet trim, a classic dress, and her clothes are all ready!

6. 4 garments to finish a Project 333 Wardrobe in black, coral and green

floral sweater – Sabinna; banded cardigan – Tory Burch; dress – Banana Republic; black velvet neck top – Dorothy Perkins

She arranged everything very neatly, and found that the clothes are going to be great for the upcoming autumn…

She realizes that she needs to choose some accessories too – this is where the great fun comes in!

8. accessories for a Project 333 Wardrobe in black, coral and green

flower earrings – Mamba; ring – David Yurman; diamond flower studs – Sethi Couture; pink bead bracelet – Samart Takham; green bandana – Rebecca Minkoff; striped scarf – Missoni; green bead necklace – Zanda Lorena Sajbin; floral scarf – Mango; pink bead necklace – Kohl’s; boots – Blondo; pumps – Isola; black velvet loafers – Sam Edelman

She tidied up her closet, putting other things away in garment bags and storage containers, until she just has just her simple Project 333 Wardrobe at the front of her closet:

As she puts her clothes onto her padded hangers and puts them away, she rehearses in her mind how she will wear her newly-assembled wardrobe:

She never imagined that she would dress to match her phone wallpaper!

love,

Janice

    The unusual accent colours soften the black neutrals and make this a very pretty wardrobe. It is a really lovely interpretation of the beautiful painting.

    *takes a deep breath*

    Ah! It’s just SO perfect! ;) I mentioned this artwork in another post – IT IS MY CELL PHONE BACKGROUND – and so now, I’m downright taken aback by how recognizable the text is. Amazing ;) And eerie. Haha.

    So, I hope it’s not pretentious to say.. thank you!! This wardrobe is beautiful and I have some of these either i) on a hanger, or ii) in a shopping cart (because I’ve been abstaining, but recently I’ve gifted friends and family with a few previously beloved pieces and so now I need a few key items to tie the remaining black – and occasionally nori – Eileen Fisher staples back together). ;)

    The accent colors are fantastic. I love that I can riff off your plan just a bit because the lines of the clothes are so lovely – I would go more gray than black for the neutral with black accents – but you’ve laid it out so nicely that it’s easy peasy to do so. Well done, Janice.
