Balenciaga Fall/Winter 2010

A piece of newspaper wafting through the streets. Ripped and layered advertisments on a concrete pillar. Construction sites, structured pavement plates. The woman transformed into a monument of urban circuits.

Golden Cut

Marios Schwab Spring/Summer 2010

While disappointed and nearly schocked by Christopher Kane, I was stunned by Marios Schwab. His geometric scheme and sharply defined anatomic division is remarkable due to its consequence and variety. Every piece translating the idea strong yet differently.

Hypsochromic Shift

Mary Katrantzou Spring/Summer 2010

A great sense and intelligent use of prints. The artwork becomes the construction. The flat evolves into something 3-dimensional. Trompe l'œil and acid for the eye.

Complicated/Simple

Natsumi Zama LCF BA Graduate Collection 2009

Interlaced layers creating structured yet plain shapes, torn between stiffness and smoothness. Pieces reminiscent of military filt blanket origami. Complemented by a beautiful colour palette of muddy greys and greens.

Posture

Anna-Sara Dåvik Spring/Summer 2010

Exaggerated monster women armed with 10 meter legs, black garbage bags and bricks. Totally elegant and captivating. Hold your breath and hide under their wafting robes. Smell their tulip based perfumes and close your eyes.

Dermatology

Tim Hamilton Spring/Summer 2010

Moving structures creating an undefinable whole. Gathered, wrinkled and draped. Thin layers of transparency protecting the human skin. Underneath and above.

Folded Paper Fight

Frankie Morello Fall/Winter 2009 vs. Gallery installation

Strikingly reminding of an old children's game: Heaven or hell. But also evoking connotations of a vagina installation.

Known As Naum

Constructivism, Bauhaus and minimalism. The monumental work of Russian sculptor Naum Gabo strikes with geometric installations made of acrylic squares, circles and triangles, celebrating the fully abstract arts.

Fleet Ilya

Fleet Ilya Fall/Winter 2008

Combining leather and a strong sense of stylized surrealism, Fleet Ilya's pieces range from extravagant bags to corset-like harnesses and weird masks and head pieces. The son of a Russian sculptor, Fleet's designs have a great sense of constructivism and dramatization.
