Dior..Issey Miyake..Yohji yamamoto..Junya Watanabe..made me go 'KAWAII' for the first time..




 Future Beauty: 30 Years of Japanese Fashion   is a MUST see exhibition. The simplicity of folding and draping a cloth in various ways can create masterpieces as displayed in this exhibition. GO SEE IT! only £8 at the Barbican centre, london. 


  
 
series of pleats. all done by paper.



 



Another inspiring exhibition worth seeing is the Dior Illustrated, René Gruau & The Line of Beauty. My favourite illustration was for the perfume Dior-Dior, 1976 which was launched in Marrakesh. I love how the 'billowing white cotton dress enveloping the woman expresses the opulence of this perfume'.  Looks like i need to start developing my illustration skills...
