Theme Day: Silhouette

Today, October 1, 2012, is Theme Day across the citydailyphotoblog (CDPB) world-wide community. I read someplace that the word silhouette takes on a whole different meaning in the fashion world. I called Heidi Klum last night, and she agreed with me. I told her what I had planned, and she gave me permission to post anything I wanted for this theme, including a cute kitten. The term is also used to describe clothes of different time periods and categories. The corset of the Edwardian period spoke directly to this concept of fashion silhouette. This gal, all decked out in a riding outfit aboard her donkey(yes, you read that correctly), had no need of a corset to prop up her backside in the saddle. She did quite fine without one, thank you. Her posture was fine. So, theme day for me is a bit of a stretch for the word silhouette, but when I think fashion, I think Heidi. So, connect the dots on this one, and if you don't believe me... look it up.
ps. Sorry, I can't release Heidi's cell number on this blog. But she would back me up on this.

  13. You and Heidi must be pretty close for her to take the time to consult with you on your Theme Day post. I just love her new children's collection at Babies R Us! Nice post.
