Nuclear Whiteness




Dior Homme Spring/Summer 2012

Once ahead our time... when we live in underground bunkers, artificial brutalist spaces made of concrete, furnished with leather and Persian carpets. Sleeveless will become the uniform. Tribal tattoos will indicate the social rank.

Artworks Yves Saint Laurent

A rather unknown and intense side. A different école des beaux arts. Yves Saint Laurent did not only draw draped dresses, le smoking or slender mannequins. His oeuvre includes the oriental wallah.

Prince of Persia 1989 & 2010

John Galliano Spring/Summer 2003

Porcelain dolls in exuberant colours. Wrapped in tunics, veils, dresses and scarfs. Too much of everything. Too much of romanticism. Too much of orientalism. Overdosage of such a degree only a John Galliano is allowed to.
