Thierry Mugler Fall 2011

Finally!  I have been waiting for good stills from this show and found some via fashiongonerogue.com.  This much anticipated collection does not disappoint.  I love the simplicity of the garments actually.. I have seen a lot of pattern on the runway for fall and although there was SOME print there were a lot more solid tones coupled with transparency.  The line itself carries strong Thierry motifs of a fierce (I hate using that word.), domina sexuality.. There is a mixture of soft, structurally hard, and biomorphic garments that exagerate the female form.  Also love all the latex that is mixed with other materials.  Latex on latex on latex was getting boring and the use of latex in the mainstream became more commonplace in the past few years so its nice to see it more integrated with other materials.  DSquared featured a lot of red latex mixed in with their fall line last year and I absolutely loved it.  Anyway.. on to the photos.

Painting the Roses

Just a little craft project.  For a fashion show I did a few years back I made a series of hair pieces consisting of flowers dipped in various colored latex and shined in the same fashion as latex garments.  I am not interested in making hair pieces but thought I would revisit the process for fun.  I started with black because I wanted to make a piece for a small spot in my room.
