JUM NAKAO

Art and fashion, costume design and animation; Brazilian Jum Nakao is a versatile and playful individual.

For his A Costura Do Invisivel paper collection, more than 700 hours of painstaking work went into the production of delicate and beautiful dresses made entirely from paper. Strips, punched and laser-cut-look patterns all go together to produce an inventive and intricate spectacle.

The show ended with the traditional parade of models down the runway, but the most shocking and exciting part came when each model stopped and ripped, tore and destroyed her paper outfit. You can actually see the visible shock on the faces of the audience in the video on the designer’s website. He then recreated the entire collection again in miniature for the Revolver exhibition at the Oscar Niemeyer Museum. Placed in a glass case, mice were then let loose to eat away at the dresses until they fell apart.

SCHERER GONZALEZ

The creative and morbid charm of Germany's capital
Just hours ago, the Berlin fashion-design duo Scherer González made their debut presentation at the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Berlin. Constanze G. González and Paul Scherer's spring/summer 2009 fashion show took place at Bebelplatz in Berlin's historic Mitte district. More than 400 invited guests attended the festivities as the designers unveiled their upcoming spring collection, proving that Berlin and high fashion are by no means mutually exclusive terms.

The creative and morbid charm of Germany's capital has inspired the designers to create a collection showcasing unexpected opposites. Urban architecture combined with contemporary rebellious-art elements served as a springboard for a glamorous and progressive collection. Neon-coloured graffiti prints silk-screened onto meticulously tailored, fine silk fabrics make for a gritty-meets-grace aesthetic that achieves a controversial kind of harmony. Countless handcrafted roses adorn a dress that moves like liquid metal, baggy mini-overalls sport glowing prints, and neon-coloured leather buttons are sewn onto delicate crêpe de chine to make the spirit of contrast all the more striking. The show itself starts a few minutes late because a huge crush of people has to be seated first. Shortly after the last guests have been guided to their seats the light gets dimmed and the sound turned up. Now the spotlights are put on. The show begins. Already the first piece, dress Cara, gives the direction. People clap, over and over again.

Dresses form the centrepiece of the 50-piece collection, which includes a solid supporting cast of shorts, generously-cut tops and mini-overalls. The Scherer González fashion show opens with a series of intricately tailored day dresses in a reserved palette of black, grey and cream. A rainbow of colours takes centre stage as the subsequent group of fashions, a range of prêt-à-porter summer dresses...

BEHANCE

GORI DE PALMA 2010

“-écorché- pretende ser una reinterpretación del vestir, donde las prendas dejan ver el interior y nos permite precisar con exactitud lo que hay detrás. La figura humana es forma y cuerpo, del mismo modo que las prendas, sin embargo estas ya no responden a las pautas establecidas, o su función principal: -cubrir / tapar- sino que adquieren un sentido opuesto: -desnudar-. La transparencia de los materiales empleados para lograr ese fin se articulan con la sugerencia de las formas creadas y volúmenes, para concebir figuras de marcado aire sensual. En definitiva, una propuesta anticonvencional, que obliga a una lectura diferente a la vez que cuestiona si verdaderamente están resueltos ciertos tabús morales”

CAROLYN MASSEY

Autumn/winter 2009/2010

Biography
"Carolyn Massey is a great new talent that I feel will become established in the London menswear movement, that has been growing over the last couple of years." Matthew Murphy, B Store

Since leaving the Royal College of Art in 2005, Carolyn Massey has gone on to set up her internationally stocked label, and has been approached by Topman to create a seasonal diffusion line.

Currently in her 7th season, the Carolyn Massey mainline label exhibits seasonally in Paris during Mens' Fashion Week through easternBlock showroom. Corresponding presentations are also held through London Fashion Week.

As well as the mainline collection, production has started on Carolyn's fifth diffusion line collection for Topman. "Carolyn Massey for Topman" AW09 will go into Topman's flagship store in Oxford Circus, La Foret in Tokyo, Selfridges, London and Topman NY.

Designer Background

Carolyn Massey is a 28-year-old London based British menswear designer who completed the MA at the Royal College of Art in 2005. After 'frustration boredom and demand', her label was started in June 2006. A detail obsessive, who can't abide man made fibres, her work focuses upon the sartorial code of 'what it is to be a gentleman' and how this has been appropriated during times of social or civil unrest.

CRISIS....................

En estos tiempos de crisis mundial, es un poco difícil pensar en el futuro, pensar en avanzar, no sé, y todas esas personas que están al paro?con familias, con niñ@s a su cargo, esperemos que todo esto mejore, que empiecen a crear puestos de trabajo, a estabilizarse los precios de las viviendas, que todo el mundo pueda tener su casa, por modesta que sea, ojalá seguir luchando con nuestro pequeño granito de arena desde este rincón del mundo sirva para algo ;)
