alexandra verschueren || 2009





































































Hyères, France— Twenty-two-year-old Belgian Alexandra Verschueren is now €15,000 Euros ($20,000) richer, having been named the winner of this year's L'Oréal Professional Grand Prize at the 25th edition of the Hyères International Festival of Fashion and Photography. The Royal Academy graduate won the award for her Medium line, which explores the creative possibilities for paper.

Inspired by German artist Thomas Demand’s photographs of lifelike paper-and-cardboard installations, her garments have the appearance of being made from paper and some are constructed with sharp, origami-like cuts. To create the unusual pieces, Verschueren used starched wool, cotton-blends, Tyvek, and in one instance, actual paper. Her patterns also resemble paper, featuring ballpoint-pen lines and graph paper grids.

Each year, Hyères, which is located in the south of France, holds the festival for up-and-coming designers and photographers. The jury this year included such major names as Dries Van Noten and Maria Cornejo. The late punk-rock impresario Malcolm McLaren had also been scheduled to participate.

The festival has a reputation for spotting avant garde talent early on. One year dynamic conceptualists, Viktor and Rolf, were picked as winners, and who have since gone on to collaborate with major international firms like H&M and Samsonite. Verschueren is already following suit: she was also the recipient of a footwear partnership planned with Spanish shoe company Camper.

yuima nakazato || wooden dimension 08



the post is following the previous one regarding "wooden dimension" collection. it is yuima nakazato's graduation work. in this film, you can see him explaining his concept and how he presented it into his work..

i absolutely love his pop-up book idea.. and at the end, all the models flipped the clothes and transformed into "pop-up" dresses! heart it

yuima nakazato || aw10























these artistic/fashion pieces r designed by an antwerp grad - yuima nakazato.. who has been won quite a few awards already..

i browsed his website today and found the past collections r phenomenal, from the graduation show "wooden dimension collection" to the accessory collection called "expansion", showed stunning design detail and delicate craftsmanship.

highly recommended to watch "the wooden dimension" film clip, the futuristic, geometric look is marvelous!

katie gallagher || aw10 make-up/hairstyle





katie gallagher || aw10











i absolutely love her sci-fi collection for aw10.. the leggings, the design, the hair, the make-up, love everything she did~~ the way she combined different fabrics for the legging design is totally blow my mind... outer jacket/coat often pretty plain & ordinary, your fab look then will hide inside the black or beige plain coat, but her giant collar of coat with the drapery in the back, instantly gives a stylish look..

it reminds me rodarte ss10 but only it's more wearable.. the fit silhouette shows the beauty of female figure, it's sexy in a quirky way. love it!!!
