What is this season’s colour?
Pantone often decides the seasonal colour swabs which are
used in both Fashion and Interior Design. These are often released seasonally and
have a wide reaching effect on produced design. This year’s spring collection
seems to be quit light and pastel in nature. Its
interesting to be aware of Pantone colours as they could be incorporated in to
an illustration.
Who is the top selling contemporary artist?
It’s hard to pin point the highest selling artist as they tend
not to publish their earnings. Most investigations leads to Damien Hurst as
being the top earning contemporary artist in current times, alto this may be
false. he is defiantly a well selling artist however, its important to keep him and many others in mind.
The nominees for the 2015 best animation award were “Big Hero 6”, “Song of the
Sea”, “The Boxtrolls”, “The Tale of
the Princess Kaguya” and “How to Train
Your Dragon 2”. The winner was announced as “Big Hero 6” by Don Hall
and Chris Williams at the Walt Disney studios.
Who won the sun dance film festival?
Sun Dance provides awards for many different categories of independent
film. The list of 2015 winners is quite extensive. So it’s good to keep a saved link
to the site and check up on the news.

Who is the leading light in contemporary interiors?
Jessica brook designs have been having an impact on interior
design. The more fine art nature of those designs have been increasing in
popularity for some time now. Designs like these have inspired other studios and
manufacturers to produce these styles of furnishing.
Who is causing waves in the music industry?
This question can totally depend on the type of music. This industry
is so diverse and such an important part of people’s lives that it’s hard to
treat it all as one thing. despite this it is a fairly easy industry to keep up with as there are a lot of publications surrounding music.
What are the trends in food fashion?
It seems that the most prevalent trend in the food industry
is around healthy eating and vegetables. Not so much on dieting but meals
consisting mainly of healthy ingredients. Cauliflower seems to be a favourite at
this present time and is popularly used as a substitute for potatoes. exotic foods have always been popular and continue to be within the food industry.
What is more influential street style or high fashion?
The answer to this question changes constantly as the fashion
world is so sporadic. They often inspire one another but take their influences
down different paths. The answer also changes when looking at age range and customer
chose.
