Crazy Vintage Inspiration

abduzeedo - 12/20/2007

One of the design styles I like the most is that with vintage images collages, mixed with handwritten texts, stains, spots, and tons of dirty things. It's fantastic the crazy things they come up with, like a person with a bird's head and stuff like that. So that's what I want to show on this post, some examples of this sort of work.

There are excellent designers that we can consider masters on this subject. One of them in particular is a brazilian called Eduardo Recife. His work is fantastic and it’s totally worth checking his website out. Besides of that, you can find excellent images on Flickr, there are amazing groups where they are always updating with new works and experiments.

Very inspiring in terms of fashion design. These can be interpreted into some hot vintage looking fashions. I think some of these could be made into some sort of sexy print dress, like maybe a shift dress with a modern twist. Hot!

Fantastic work, love that style - thanks for sharing.
I many times wonder about copyright issues for the base images.
If you do collages like that, where do you get your image material / illustrations from - how much do you grab from old magazines, etc. and how much are you drawing from scratch?

I've just stumbled across the website of Susan Burghart who has quite a unique style in this vintage fashion.
