Très réussi, cet objet urbain est à découvrir dans la suite de l’article avec une série complète de visuels. Reflections in Facets di Winde Rienstra. Il 26 gennaio, all'Amsterdam Fashion Week, la stilista Winde Rienstra ha presentato la nuova collezione "Reflections in Facets".

Seta, legno, cartone e vetro lavorati con rigore e ispirati al pittore J.C. Van Schagen. La nuova collezione conferma l'identità della giovane designer olandese, capace di unire rigore e delicatezza, radicalismo e minuziosità. E di trasmettere i valori che il suo brand riassume dalla nascita: sostenibilità, unicità, qualità, immediatezza e fatto a mano. "Reflections in Facets" è una collezione di bodypieces costruiti in fibra di legno intarsiata e cartoncino sfaccettato. Winde ha così distillato nuovi modelli dall'ipertrofia grafica di Van Schagen e li ha tradotti in architetture rigorose ma espansive, in crescita sul corpo come eleganti armature futuristiche.

Forme che mutano d'aspetto al variare delle luci riflesse sulla seta e sui materiali disposti appositamente secondo schemi geometrici che infondono contrasto e tensione agli abiti.

Sashiko Stitched Hand Guards October 26, 2013 I just returned from a buying trip to Japan, and when I’m there I never know what I’ll find–and what I won’t find.

Sri Threads

Luckily, this past time I happened upon things I rarely see, sashiko stitched hand guards. And I didn’t find just one pair–I found three. The pair shown above is my favorite for its age, its good stitching and its wear. Although I can’t be sure, I have a hunch, based on the situation where I acquired these, that the two pairs shown above are from Japan’s northern or eastern area. The pair shown above is wonderful for its base cloth of kasuri or ikat woven cotton.

As I’m so enamored of these pairs of mittens I am in no rush to sell them.

Thus spake legendary British designer Vivienne Westwood, who cites China as the key inspiration behind her Spring/Summer 2012 Gold Label collection at Paris Fashion Week on Friday. Coupled with oversized 17th century corsetry, the Berbers of North Africa, and desertification as a result of climate change, and you have an idiosyncratic panoply of cobweb knits, tablecloth-lace wedding gowns, stiff brocade jackets, and ticking-stripe bedspread dresses that could only have sprung from the mind of the Godmother of Punk herself.

But back to the Chinese. “I hope their traditional wisdom and experience from a culture going back to Confucius may help us to save the planet,” she says. Westwood enlisted Zhijia Wang, deputy director of UNEP’s Division of Regional Cooperation, to pen the Chinese characters that adorn some of her garments.
