My first thoughts about Earthly Delights was to connect with one of my favorite paintings all the time by Bosch.
The Theme Earthly Delights, being a very broad topic, i can relate with this picture and as we can see below, it's about to depict the whole of human experience from life to afterlife in three related canvases. The first on the left is meant to represent Paradise, the last on the right is hell. And in the center lies The Garden of Earthly Delights
The Garden of Earthly Delights
It's a triptych By Hieronymus Bosch

the work was often interpreted as an admonition against carnal and worldly indulgence, being the image below the first painting was described in 1517 by the Italian chronicler Antonio de Beatis and develop by Bosch in the future.
As my continuation route is Fashion Design i will develop the three stages of this painting and explore deeply the meaning and the symbology to create a Fashion collection divided by the paradise, the earth and the hell.
This is a great starting point for inspiration here Maria. The Paradise, Earth and Hell bring some strong images to my mind - it will be interesting to see how you want to then apply this to your progression route.
