Rooster With Wild Flowers

Here’s my outfit for SIA, inspired by Ito Jakuchu ‘s “Rooster and Hen with Hydrangeas”. I immediately knew I’d wear my rooster brooch for this, but for the rest of the outfit, I drew a blank. In the end, I went with this embroidered top as a nod to the flowers in the painting (even though these embroideries are nowhere near as intricate!), these green trousers to reflect the green leaves/grass, and these mules to mimic both the branches and the patterns of the chickens’ feathers. It turns out pretty well, don’t you think? Don’t forget to check Marsha’s blog on Wednesday to see what everybody else wears! ...
