2. Sofa Moroso x Diesel, Candles Maison Martin Margiela, Lamps Tom Dixon
3. Bed frame IKEA, Wooden clogs and butterfly collection Vintage

Welcome to my sister's home. Dipped in soft bubble gum and sorbet colours. An ode to the Fifties and Sixties in hues of pink, pistachio and moss green. Op-art surfaces confronted with post-conceptual irony.

Anacrusis



1. Dries van Noten Fall/Winter 2011
2. Tom Ford Unknown collection

Same same but different. As the men's robe seems to be a Tom Ford signature, I've decided to investigate further on this (mostly bare chested) subject. Results will supposedly be shared here.

Amuse Gueule




Dries van Noten Fall/Winter 2011

This season Dries was all about the shoes. Blue velvet. Green snake. Black fur. Plexiglas heels and op-art socks. As I won't be wearing any of them, I'll bake red velvet cupcakes today.

Extravaganza






Prada Spring/Summer 2011

The ugly beautiful amazingness of Miuccia Prada. Hourglass silhouettes. Minimalism charged with tackiness. Striped fox tail stoles. Op-art sombrero hats. Lonely island iconography. Too much to handle, so much to love.

Scintillation Study



Top Lilly Heine
Bottom Victor Vasarely

A glance into the archives of much vaunted CSM graduate Lilly Heine. Irritating views onto an intangible subject, cut out of paper. Inspired by 60s op-art, the result leaves the viewer with doubts about reality.
