SPITGAN MAGAZINE: SPITTING MAD FIRE
As soon as I saw the baseball inspired dress I was hooked. Though I now seriously doubt this was a baseball inspired dress after seeing the entire collection I still dig it for that inventiveness. Definitely a few other pieces I like, as I will always. Still waiting for Sarah to take this house in her own direction and come out from under the shadow of the great Mr. McQueen. Best. SPITGAN.
Moonlit skin and raw hair wraps by Guido, filled with ornaments. The order of the day for Alexander McQueen FW2016. Looks like a cool birds nest with shiny baubles to me.
An exploration into “how fashion designers are reconciling the handmade and the machine-made in the creation of haute couture and avant-garde ready-to-wear”. This year’s Costume Institute, spring 2016 exhibition, curated by Andrew Bolton, presents 150 ensembles dating from the early 20th Century to visually represent the progression. Some stunning pieces here of fashion’s ingenuity. See more in the video attatched below, or in the corresponding article on Models.com here : http://models.com/mdx/an-inside-look-at-manus-x-machina/
