The Devil's In The Details

William Bouguereau, Dante and Virgil in Hell, 1850

Luis Ricardo Faléro, Departure of the Witches, 1878

Monday, 21 January 2013

Alidra's work is based on an interpretation of the cultural and art historical framework of a given period towards a personal concept within contemporary jewellery. With a strong emphasis on sensibility she illustrates her concept using a self-invented plastic technique in combination with precious metals and stones. Little refreshment for those who got bored with conventional jewels.

Vivienne Westwood for English National Ballet

The British ballet is getting a haute treatment. Vivienne Westwood fashion house has loaned few of the Spring/Summer 2013 looks to English National Ballet. It is considered the a part of company's rebranding campaign in a bid to make ballet seem contemporary, accessible and relevant, while still deeming itself as a historic art form. We love these catchphrases on their new posters advertising new season.

Alexander McQueen Pre-Fall 2013

Alexander McQueen fashion house will never cease to bore us with the ordinary. Its new RTW collection (the one that, unlike their haute couture marvelousness, you actually CAN purchase) astonishes with the black-white-red palette composed on the bold cuts and innovative forms McQueen specializes in. And of course an inseparable "must", flair of drama, the company's hallmark this season in form of a vampire-like cloaks and roman robes, all of that soon in stores. McQueen, we love you, as usual.
