Discover a Notable Moodboard Inspired by London Fashion Week 2019

Interior design and fashion have always been two disciplines often associated with each other, because they do share a lot of similarities, from trends to materials used, etc. In virtue of the London Fashion Week 2019, the Best Design Books blog has come across a unique moodboard that further perpetuates this connection between the two expressive forms.

Images of the dresses are accompanied by informative text and enhanced by close-up details as well as runway photos, fashion plates,…
