The development of Mokum's latest fabric range Moderne 2010 can be seen on their blog 'Studio 98'.
One of Moderne's influence was French fashion designer Madeleine Vionnet (1876-1975). She designed beautiful evening dresses in the 20-30's and one of her beadworks has been re-created by Mokum as an textile pattern called 'Vionnet'. You can also note the Peacock influence for the 'Rivoli' fabric.
As a designer, I enjoy seeing the design process and how the final product came to be. If you do too, have a look at Mokum's blog here. Also check out the Moderne by Mokum website here for more a in-depth look of the new textile range.
