Poolside Flamingo Love

written by Laura

Ever wondered why pink flamingos are so popular in fashion, interior design, and art? Known as the hot pink queen of kitsch, the plastic flamingo was created by a sculptor back in 1957. His name was Don Featherstone, and he ended up winning an Ig Nobel Art Prize for his creation of what was originally meant to be a three-dimensional lawn ornament. Reportedly, Featherstone based his design flamingo photos he saw in National Geographic. Somehow this sculptor had captured the visual style of an era: the pink flamingo soon became a symbol of Americana. The quintessential yard décor piece that went from eccentric and kitschy to being recognized as a nostalgic piece of art. 

I´ve always felt drawn to the playful, retro look that flamingos add to any type of design piece, and that’s why this one-piece by Bikinima called my attention. Check out the caption below the image for details about the rest of the pieces I am wearing.

Sunglasses: Dior, Headband: American Apparel, Swimsuit: Bikinima
