The Louis Vuitton collaboration with Yayoi Kusama is, apparently, its most successful art union ever, which probably means it's the most successful art-fashion union of all time.

Beyond dress codes exhibition


















The exhibition includes costumes and accessories created by famous Cypriot fashion designers.
Within the framework of the Cyprus Presidency of the Council of the European Union, the Laiki Bank Cultural Centre in collaboration with the Cyprus Fashion Designers Association and the Hellenic American Union present the exhibition “Beyond Dress Codes: From Traditional Costume to Contemporary Fashion”.
In this way, the Greek and Cypriot traditional costumes are presented not as the antiquated contents of museum showcases but as sources of inspiration and creative interest. This concept, will be transmitted to the youth generation through a prototype and interactive educational programme “Dress up: Cyprus Style” which is going to be conducted at the Laiki Bank Cultural Centre. At the same time, the educational programme includes an independent online game that aims to bring the next generation in personal contact with the Cypriot folk art and traditional costume.

Rodarte Womenswear SS2013







The Rodarte collection started out a little confusing, until Susie Bubble leaned over and whispered, "have you seen Game of Thrones?" Then everything clicked and became suddenly, overwhelmingly delightful. Flowing dragon princess gowns dripped with romantic proto-goth melting rose necklaces and chain mail medallions; chastity corsets and oversized leather jackets with extra long fringe a stone's throw to the fairy side of motorcycle badass. The world of fantasy role play is so often overlooked as a source of strength and beauty, usually because of its connotation with a socially segregate community. Fantasy nerds though, like fashion's idealised rebels, reject conventional restraints to live in a world exactly of their choosing, by their own rules, literally full of magic power.

Laura Mulleavy: The collection kind of started as a way to play with the idea of medieval and fantasy role playing games.
