Maria Vasquez
The inspiration for this line came from viewing religious paintings with the colors
specifically influenced by “La Vista De Toledo”, a painting by El Greco. Colors
include those of the sky, the trees and the sand. The garments resemble those
portraying the Virgin Mary, with changes made to enable the line to be seductive yet
conservative. The belts of the garments are emphasized to illustrate the expectancy
of a child. The simple silhouette of the designs was chosen to stress the importance
of accessorizing, in order to have a greater impact on the entire look.
