On some ‘Back to the Future’ type ish. This is 2008, where NASA unveiled this electric moon rover for testing. Lets look forward people. Maybe the gad’ damn problem with fashion eating itself is that we are not risking life and limb. This is fresh as hell. Its got a whole different set of specs, to function in space and its terrain, but the brilliant minds behind this still made it look fly as hell! The bubble driver dome, the back-end like some futuristic pick up truck. 2008 my brethren, lets get creative here and not let profits handcuff us to repetitive, safe cycles.

真/CURIOSO : LANVIN LOGO
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0SmqevW3HY
今年是Lanvin品牌成立的125週年紀念,這個低調但充滿歷史的時裝品牌向來予人神秘的感覺,除了外型可愛的創意總監Albaz Elbaz外,很多人對這個品牌的故事沒有太多印象,像那個歷史悠久的品牌logo便有一個有趣的典故。這個由著名插畫師Paul Iribe設計的品牌Logo,當中的大人與小孩手牽手的標記,其實來自當年品牌的創辦人Jeanne Lanvin與她的女兒Marguerite在化裝舞會手拖手共舞的情景。 Marguerite是Jeanne的女兒同時也是她的靈感繆思,及後更啟發她推出童裝系列。
The House of Lanvin celebrates its 125 anniversary, with a little background information on the house. Founded by Jeanne Lanvin, the iconic symbol of the house is a stylized illustration of Jeanne and her daughter Marguerite. Marguerite became Jeanne’s muse as the story goes, a great source of inspiration for her which led her to develop and invent children’s wear (of the high end variety I suppose). The original logo itself was designed by the famed Paul Iribe and suggests both mother and daughter dancing at a costume ball. Now ya know!
