Here are a few images of previous inspiration I found whilst on instagram and also whilst looking around town. I saw this shop and thought some of the lingerie was quirky and intriguing and would look nice for our shoot. I also saw these pieces on instagram which I thought were incredibly intriguing and quirky however in the end we opted for different lingerie which we felt fitted more with the WGSN earthy feel and enhanced the overall effect of our A/W shoot.

Our chosen style of editorial and magazine is going to be ASOS as we feel they are very fun and quirky with their shoots. They sell to people our age and their all high-street priced products. 

Their images are really interesting and we feel their style not only suits the underwear and ideas we have but it suits our individual personalities too . 

I have a few copies of the magazine myself to we can get a closer look into the editorials that we will be duplicating the layout of for our own images, They have quite creative fonts and they're all very different for each editorial so we will have to look carefully for the one that we want to use for ours, they also have a range of different layouts and overall styles which leaves options for us very open but we need to scan through the magazines to find something that fits our final photos the best. 

However I like how we can keep our options open with this magazine, we have to option to really find something that works well if we look hard enough.

To help us get inspired and start to pick out our underwear styles me and beckie hit the high-street to look for some pieces that we liked and that we might want to use in our photo shoot. We both really liked delicate underwear, that has less structure and is more dainty. We decided our target market was people around our own age, who keep up to date with fashion and loves a good product. were also looking into ASOS for our chosen magazine to use our images in. so taking ASOS in mind they're very quirky, and fun when their selling their products which is what were trying to portray in our shoot. 

With the delicate and pretty underwear styles were looking into its as if we are trying to show a certain innocence through a sensual product by linking it with nature and natural occurrences that aren't normally deemed 'sexy.' 

The shops i looked into were H&M, NewLook, Boux Avenue, and Victoria Secret. I wanted to see what they offered us to fit into our style. But so far I have bought underwear from Ann summers, Primark and TKMaxx for the shoot. (Pictures below) these pieces will be used in our Autumn style images, With them all being nudes, browns and tan's they're really earthy colours, I'm still looking for some green items to add to these. 

( post about ASOS following shortly.) 

The last two images are a beautiful composition. their theme and selling point looks really professional and well thought out. This looks like a higher market still life image more for a higher magazine rather than ASOS who we decided to do our article for.

When researching further in to still life image of lingerie type clothing I particularly liked the use of natural light in shots taken by windows. I love the look of the light from the window filtering through the delicate pieces of underwear really drawing attention to how fragile and beautiful they look. I would really like to try and take a shot like this for our final shoot. 

Another way I particularly liked still images of lingerie was when a white background was used, whether that be white wood or just plain white, with light coming in from the side highlighting each part of the lingerie; very much like the bottom right image.
