Creative Ensembles: Yin & Yang

How to apply the Taoist philosophy to fashion and harvest unexpected styling bliss.

Yin
Yang

Yin
Yang
Ingenue, feminine influences
Dramatic, masculine influences
Lighter, closer value contrasts.  Softly grayed intensities and pastels
Darker, strong value contrasts.  Bright, intensified.
Pliable, smooth, fine, lightweight. Yields to external forces.
Firm, rich, rough, heavy.  Holds its own shape.
Many details, delicate, ornate.
Few details, strong, architectural
Curved, rounded, broken or interrupted lines
Straight, angular, restrained curves, long unbroken lines

While yin is delicately sweet and yang is sharply spicy, together they are ambrosial.

Mens jackets-with lady collars, ruffled blouses with leather cummerbunds, tissue underpinnings and industrial cuffs.  Neither syrupy nor severe.  Perfect parity.
