Happy to hear lots of love for the untucked version, and happy that the idea of expansiveness came across well ^^</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Becky</b>, I never really thought of my navy as being a complement to my hair but YES it so obviously is! Perhaps that is why I often prefer it over brown; the contrast of navy makes for a more visually interesting pairing.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>ChrisM</b>, the tucked/cropped thing can be a little tricky because you need to devote specific tops for the purpose of cropped. I resisted for a while but ultimately decided it was worth it and do not regret having a few cropped tops to wear specifically with higher-waisted bottoms; a couple can also doubly be worn over tunics!</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Sterling</b>, that sounds like a fun time :D<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0702-art-challenge---cass-tucked-untucked#post-1933546 Tue, 03 Jul 2018 14:33:45 +0000 Christina F. 1933546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great interpretation!

I would have just gone for colors, but you’ve made me think about this more. And there was no requirement that shoes in the outfit be wearable in the depicted landscape! I prefer the tucked version, but untucked is fine, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0702-art-challenge---cass-tucked-untucked#post-1933519 Tue, 03 Jul 2018 12:42:57 +0000 Karie 1933519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous! I love your thought process as to how/why you picked the elements of this outfit. I like the untucked version best, and also prefer short tops to tucking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0702-art-challenge---cass-tucked-untucked#post-1933494 Tue, 03 Jul 2018 10:22:03 +0000 Anonymous 1933494@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am utterly blown away. &nbsp;Your approach was so interesting and so novel. &nbsp;I would love to visit an art museum with you some day. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Wrt the outfits. &nbsp;Gorgeous. &nbsp;As more a traditionalist than you, I naturally preferred the tucked version. &nbsp;</p> <p>You gave me so much food for thought. &nbsp;I was certain there was a world of imagination and creativity out there that could be used to help me develop ensembles. &nbsp;You exposed a bit of it to me today. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0702-art-challenge---cass-tucked-untucked#post-1933486 Tue, 03 Jul 2018 09:38:52 +0000 ChrisM 1933486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting interpretation! Love the top - the colors are fantastic. I’m with you on cropped vs. tucked - have quite gotten it to work for me, bit this idea is planted! Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0702-art-challenge---cass-tucked-untucked#post-1933481 Tue, 03 Jul 2018 08:39:19 +0000 rachylou 1933481@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bang on.

I too prefer the untucked version - a bit more arty and true to the inspiration. Both versions are fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0702-art-challenge---cass-tucked-untucked#post-1933463 Tue, 03 Jul 2018 05:55:19 +0000 Liesbeth 1933463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes. I like the untucked version best, it looks so breezy and indeed invokes the vast space of the painting. Great interpretation! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0702-art-challenge---cass-tucked-untucked#post-1933461 Tue, 03 Jul 2018 05:38:37 +0000 Mirjana 1933461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the interpretation. Both versions are great and you look amazing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0702-art-challenge---cass-tucked-untucked#post-1933455 Tue, 03 Jul 2018 04:51:22 +0000 Katerina 1933455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great interpretation, made me look at the painting again and see new things - thank you!</p> <p>The outfit is brilliant, as your outfits always are. I like both the untucked and tucked versions, echo Suz on that. You look stunning in this outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0702-art-challenge---cass-tucked-untucked#post-1933446 Tue, 03 Jul 2018 02:50:54 +0000 Sal 1933446@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for joining in the fun.&nbsp; There is spaciousness in the South Island landscapes with very little people and lots of land.&nbsp; This oufit does evoke that.</p> <p>I like both versions.&nbsp; I love the top - a great print! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0702-art-challenge---cass-tucked-untucked#post-1933439 Tue, 03 Jul 2018 02:05:45 +0000 Suz 1933439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very rich and thoughtful interpretation! Even though you weren't aiming to respond to the colours, your outfit does in fact echo them as well as evoking the sense of broad space. It works both ways to my eye -- untucked for hot hot weather and tucked for more conventional flattery on a more temperate day.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0702-art-challenge---cass-tucked-untucked#post-1933430 Tue, 03 Jul 2018 01:48:51 +0000 Becky 1933430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting take on this; I liked reading your analysis. I love the way your hair and the culottes are a color complement and the color of the shoes is echoed in the print of the top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0702-art-challenge---cass-tucked-untucked#post-1933418 Tue, 03 Jul 2018 01:28:38 +0000 Anonymous 1933418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What I like most about these art challenges is that everyone sees the picture differently, noticing different details. Thank you for the spacial take on Cass. You nailed it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0702-art-challenge---cass-tucked-untucked#post-1933410 Tue, 03 Jul 2018 00:55:04 +0000 jussie 1933410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your interpretation. The relaxed and expansive silhouette of the untucked version seems to echo the broad landscape best, imho. The sunglasses make me picture you cruising through the desert in a convertible with the top down. Cool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0702-art-challenge---cass-tucked-untucked#post-1933406 Tue, 03 Jul 2018 00:31:30 +0000 bj1111 1933406@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit.&nbsp; love the exuberance untucked and the finished restraint when tucked.&nbsp; interesting interpretation of the work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0702-art-challenge---cass-tucked-untucked#post-1933398 Mon, 02 Jul 2018 23:55:00 +0000 Aida 1933398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Angus - "Cass"</b></p> <p>Instead of looking primarily at color, for this art challenge I'm going to look more laterally for inspiration. The two main draws for me from this particular piece are <i>space </i>(vastness of the environment against smallness of the lone person) and, on a secondary level, <i>signature </i>(the description of Angus's style as flat/simplified colors, outlined elements, and "drawing with paint").</p> <p>Fashion-wise it made sense to correlate "space" to "volume". While I was veerrryy tempted to simply go for a literal Maximum Volume Possible take, ultimately I decided that a wearable final outfit was more important This one is still very voluminous, though!</p> <p>The culottes were a no-brainer as my most voluminous bottoms, plus bonus that the tuxedo stripes echo the vertical elements in the painting. I picked this particular blouse because of the volume, color, the "ink drawn" look, and sleeve shape which echoes all the triangular geometry. Footwear considered only aesthetically, but upon later reflection I was amused that they are probably one of the few pairs I <i>wouldn't</i> wear in the environment depicted in the painting.</p> <p>I took photos both tucked and untucked, and quite like them both though am actually wearing the untucked version. Tucked is definitely more traditionally flattering but I much prefer actual short tops over tucking these days. And while untucked is probably juuust at the edge of JFE, even with low-contrast flats, I'm really liking the funkier/artier/breezier vibe.</p> <p>Comments, critiques, thoughts and questions welcome! </p>
