Guest Blogger: Harry Daniell Takes Us from Runway to Room (Part 1 of 2)

Guest Blogger Harry Daniell, of Harry Daniell Design, is back—and this time he's taking us on a tour of fashion and design, from runway to room.


By Harry Daniell


When thumbing through my old magazines, I came across an amazing and tantalizing image of Christina Aguilera. Christina isn't just a singer—she's THE incomparable singer, as varied in her style as she is in the songs she chooses to sing on her many albums. Never failing to open eyes wider and drop jaws lower, Christina goes from practically naked to fully decked out in this elegant Barbie-esque outfit. From fashion to her vocals, she consistently runs the gamut.




The colorful POP of Christina's dress is greatly accentuated by the neutral floral background chosen for this particular shoot. With a fabric not being chosen for the canopy over the bed (see below), without doubt, I would rip that dress right off of her at the end of the shoot and repurpose it for the canopy.




The background of Christina's image is sumptuous yet simple. It drives the neutrality of the items chosen for the room—the rug, dresser, chair and poof—all of which play a part in making the bolder choices “shine.”




Stay tuned tomorrow for more on Harry Daniell's review of Christina Aguilera's collection as it makes its way from runway to room.
