About FIM
I’m Johanne Durocher and the creator of Fashion in Motion- my blog about all things fashion and style.
With Fashion in Motion, I strive to create a dynamic forum where the fashion industry and its supporting members (bloggers, readers, consumers, thinkers) can share ideas and engage in debate.
My passion for fashion extends to a greater appreciation for art and design in general. I love contemporary and impressionist art, I’m interested in graphic design and visual theory, I enjoy Frank Gehry’s architectural work, I like playing with colour and texture, I adore Art Deco and Art Nouveau, and most of all, I love how fashion can transform a person.
I have far too many favourites when it comes to fashion designers and fashion houses so instead I will list some trends that I’m currently championing:
- Bold colours including 80s neon in spring/summer 09 collections
- Feminine ruffles and rosettes in soft flowy fabrics (à la Marchesa)
- Tulip-shaped skirts
- Fringed suede on slouchy totes
- Geometric prints in blown-up pixel colours
- Soft draping gowns with jeweled belts and collar trim
- Stacked bangles and bold cuffs
- Reinterpreted gladiator flats
My background is in English literature and so I naturally have an interest in research and writing. My hope for this blog is that it will be as fun for you to read as it is for me to write.
I live in Toronto, Canada.
