I recently received a great article from a friend of mine about Cristobal Balenciaga. "Without the fishermen and farmers, priests and church elders of his native Spain, designer Cristobal Balenciaga would have been at a loss for inspiration."
This source of inspiration is not unique to Balenciaga. Many designers are inspired by the people who surround them everyday.

For those of you who think that high fashion is something out of reach don't forget that most high fashion designers are inspired by the clothes that you and the people you know are already wearing!!
