More screen caps! I may be going a little nuts with these but as you can see I've good reason! I posted about Viktor & Rolfs giant tulle creations the other day and Ang of Dorothea's Closet pointed me to the video of the show which I of course watched. The thing about photos is you can't see profiles or the back of the clothes and so much glorious detail can be missed. While these aren't crisp shots I still think they are worth a look to see how these ingenious tulle sculptures appear from different angles, especially the cut-outs. How on earth did ...

Photos courtesy of Style.com Paris Fashion Week, Dutch design-duo Viktor & Rolf's previous conceptual collections ( Spring '09 and Fall '08 ) landed them two 'Crimes of Fashion' citations respectively.

Wow. A Viktor & Rolf show is always a guaranteed spectacle but I actually laughed out loud at this one! I'd like to say it was because their unbridled playful experiment with tulle made me happy, but I'm not quite sure I can convince myself it's a matter of laughing with them. Or maybe I am?

I have to say though that I'm finding myself quite fascinated with the cross-section of those precision cut-outs in the skirts. How many layers must there ... Read Full Story

There was no way I was going to not enjoy Viktor & Rolf’s Spring 2010; Roisin Murphy was singing. However, it wasn’t until I saw the collection I didn’t realize the added bonuses I would get: The Grace Jones hair on all the models. Awesome Roisin Murphy Singing Crazy cutout dresses. Pure spectacle and fun! Related posts Why don’t we get H&M commericals (0) Viktor & Rolf, to be swimming in cash!

Viktor & Rolf sculpted tulle couture for Spring/Summer 2010 via Style.com Horticouture is always something that ruffles my feathers, but I have to say that I was pretty amused by these colorful topiary-like sculpted gowns that came down the runway at the Viktor & Rolf show at Paris Fashion Week . Tulle netting is hardly sustainable, but I could not help fantasizing about what these same gowns might look like in a French formal garden sculpted out of boxwood shrubbery .
