Questa volta facendo i saldi a Ginevra ho trovato delle belle Protaetia (Potosia) cuprea ssp.ignicollis.....,
Interessante che abbiano scelto per questi cuscini di dubbio gusto una specie del vicino oriente.
Forse, come molti tessuti di arredamento e vestiti, sono fatti in Turchia.

Sì, va bene, ma dove sono le modelle???

Pronte a sedersi su quei morbidi cuscini....

Since its first appearance in Alexander McQueen’s Irere Collection back in 2003, the iconic skull scarf has become a signature item in the fashion house’s accessory range. To celebrate its 10th anniversary, Alexander McQueen has invited British artist Damien Hirst to create a new scarf collection, available both in McQueen boutiques and at AlexanderMcQueen.com from 15 November 2013. The common ground between McQueen and Hirst - apart from both having a long creative career full of delicious controversy and radical thinking- was found in a shared aesthetic vision which combines symmetrical design with ‘‘strong references to the natural world.’’ The anniversary scarf collection consists of 30 one-off designs featuring various insects that together form McQueen’s signature skull shape. The designs themselves were adapted from Hirst’s ‘‘Entomology’’ paintings (2009-2012) in which the artist used insect patterns to create colourful kaleidoscopic images.
Enjoy it, Guido

La plantureuse Dita Von Teese a été l'élue pour clôturer le défilé haute couture Printemps-été 2014 Jean-Paul Gaultier dans la peau d'un papillon mercredi 22 janvier à la Fashion Week parisienne.

La "plantureuse" significa "formosa". Non aggiungo altro, si spiega (le ali) da solo.

Robert Wun B U R N T Collection
Inspirée tout droit de la nature la collection "B U R N T" de Robert Wun part de l'imperfection propre à tous pour nous conduire vers une vision nouvelle de la beauté que peuvent cacher ces imperfections. Les papillons nocturnes disséminent leurs battements d'ailes pour se frayer un chemin, que le créateur s'émerveille de retranscrire dans le tissu. Éphémère, cette vision du papillon est représentée dans des dégradés afin d'illustrer une forme de brûlure de vie. On notera également la démarche grandissante des chaussures qui telle une corne de coléoptère viennent habiller le pied.

Louis Vuitton’s Maroquinaris Zoologicae
I don’t know what’s harder—chopping up heaps of Louis Vuitton bags or coming up with creation after amazing creation of creatures from the parts. British artist Billie Achilleos had to do both of these when she was commissioned for the luxury fashion house’s Maroquinaris Zoologicae, celebrating their 100th anniversary in the small leather goods game.
The Grasshopper is constructed from products with zips and poppers that make satisfying noises like that of the musically gifted insect. And finally my favorite, the Beaver, who’s functionality chops wood, builds dams…and provides cleaver ways of organising ones life in men’s bags and wallets.”
