Absolutamente Posh!: Me ♥ Superheroes Desde pequeño me encantan los súper héroes. Según algunos de mis amigos, en realidad, no es más que una manifestación de mi subcosnciente de mi gusto desde muy pequeño por los hombres en mallas pegadas. Yo más bien creo en que era esa fascinación por la doble vida, hombre normal de día, superheroe de noche (léase aquí, hetero de día y marica de noche, típica vida doble que todos hemos llevado en algún momento, aunque a mí me durara más bien poco). También es verdad que yo era fan de Batman y Robin (todo muy homoerótico) y de Lobezno, que es un X-Men, y ellos llevan mucho el discurso anti-xenófobo y a favor de las minorías. Veamos por dónde lo veamos, los súper héroes tiene connotaciones homoeróticas, además de ser una suerte de metáfora de los colectivos menos favorecidos y peor vistos socialmente.

Gabriel Moreno illustrations Attracting Attention Madrid-based illustrator, engraver and painter Gabriel Moreno is attracting attention with his great illustrations. His latest work with the Jüng von Matt/Limmatt agency in Zurich for the 80-year-old Swiss shoe brand Vögele plays a fun visual trick. You need two takes to figure out that you are looking at an illustration with real feet/legs and real shoes. Somehow the eye fights this reality, trying to convince you that it is all the same; either all illustration or all “real.” 4FASHIONSHAKE III _ Hormazd Narielwalla does DP as one participant in 4FASHIONSHAKE « Fred Butler's amazing ball of color from her film by Elisha Smith-Leverock at Headquarters today | Main | Lesley de Freitas _Many Kinds of Love Parts 1 & II » Saturday, 26 March 2011 4FASHIONSHAKE III _ Hormazd Narielwalla does DP as one participant in 4FASHIONSHAKE Dear Shaded Viewers, 4Fashionshake is a project organized by Ozon magazine, held twice a year in April and November in Greece.

Japanese Designer Rie Hosokai Turns Balloons Into Inflatable Couture Rie Hosokai Balloon Fashion Hosokai constructs each piece by hand, but she admits it can be difficult to account for the amount of air when managing the size and volume of her dresses. Although the materials are inexpensive—about 9 cents per balloon—each featherweight (and biodegradable) creation carries a hefty price tag ranging from $1,930 to $3,860. Hosokai began her career as a florist before venturing into the world of balloon art and starting her own company, Daisy Balloon. With her recent win at Belgium’s annual “Millennium Jam” balloon festival and over 20 wedding dresses sold since Daisy Balloon launched two years ago, it’s clear that Hosokai’s unique take on fashion is taking off—so long as she steers clear of sharp objects, that is.
