Balenciaga Saltlakrits

Balenciaga Fall/Winter 2011

Looking at a Balenciaga collection is like eating a chocolate bar. Slowly chewing every bit. Discovering pieces of caramelised hazelnuts and tender swirls of caramel. This time its flavour is salty liquorice.

Thin layers of leather. Nude and transparent. Hand-moldered, waxed and washed-out. Emphasizing the principles of existence. Garments that reflect traces of human action. Clothes that imply the wearer's devoted past.

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.
