…………………..On every trip I took to Saint Tropez it was an overload of inspiration. There was so much to see, and everyone was showing off their best!…..Here are some very quick croquis I did on one of those trips…….From left to right…..The bare midriff bold stripe off the shoulder knit, short sleeve top with pleated linen “dance” side buttoned shorts. The shorts had a flare that almost made them look like a mini skirt. The pleats helped to give the leg width……In the center is an off the shoulder long knit bold stripe dress with 3/4 sleeves and a high slit. The princess seam on one side was banded in black all the way down on both sides of the slit…….The strapless bold stripe knit top had an attached button front placket, and shirt collar….but it only had real button holes on the collar stand and down the placket to the start of the sweet heart neckline….The rest was faux and didn’t unbutton…….The shoe sketches were also inspired by my trip to St. Tropez….The ESPARDRILLE PLATFORM HIGH HEEL had a classic crocheted toe cap on the linen upper. It had ties that went up the leg….The 1 1/2″ platform was covered in woven jute, and the heel was a bleached stacked wood…..The SLIDE was in the bold stripe, and had a “teacup” heel covered in black and white stones…..The toe character was to be a squared off point………Good times!
