Uvenio: "The Baroque Collection"

 The Photo shoot of Josh Costa was amazing in my Uvenio Baroque Collection. The designs inspire by prints of baroque, It was done on a Thursday afternoon on location in New York. The studio was amazingly filled with makeup artist, Jewrel, several interns and the photographer was Scott Bush, Josh brough glamour, masculine and sex appeal into my collection Seen in silky fabric from Italy and created two printed silk shirts with baroque buttons. I have always been inspired by Baroque.
The Baroque (US /bəˈrk/ or UK /bəˈrɒk/) is a period of artistic style that used exaggerated motion and clear, easily interpreted detail to produce drama, tension, exuberance, and grandeur in sculpture, painting, architecture, literature, dance and music. The style began around 1600 in Rome, Italy and spread to most of Europe.
 
The popularity and success of the Baroque style was encouraged by the Roman Catholic Church, which had decided at the time of the Council of Trent, in response to the Protestant Reformation, that the arts should communicate religious themes in direct and emotional involvement'. The aristocracy also saw the dramatic style of Baroque architecture and art as a means of impressing visitors and expressing triumphant, power and control. Baroque palaces are built around an entrance of courts, grand staircases and reception rooms of sequentially increasing opulence.
