The colour dream team, GIRL COLOURS! |
I had the honour to be part of the anti-fashion show on the launch night Chromophilia curated by Peter Herbert. an exhibition celebrating the love and the use of colours in art, vibrant, gaudy, mismatched every colour as long as it is not "beige".
|
I did an open call for modelling my dress on Facebook, "Mo model required just charisma & attitude" I ended up with 6 really enthusiast and beautiful friends
wonderful atmosphere in the fitting room before the show, not easy to dress your own models when you are wearing a bulky outfit yourself and when your wire keep on going caught in the net!

The great painter Emma Zarafi modelling for Diane Goldie made my portrait featured at the Chromophilia exhibition, so proud to be a muse! |

Last advices for my dollies before going on the catwalk "just be fabulous" |
The fashion catwalk organised by Diane Goldie (find all the pictures of her amazing garment on
her blog)
at the Saint Pancras gallery wasn't about fashion but style As Diane said "Fashion tells you what to wear, style asks how you’d like to express yourself."
|
Make up made with colourful tinsels glitter and glue, the color went on my skin and I wasn't able to take it off for few days, looked like I caught the chromophilite! |
This anti fashion catwalk happened to be the same day of the official London Fashion week Launch a kind of thumb of nose to the new fashion establishment by the style terrorists that we are.

Beautiful actress and friend
Eve Zohar wearing my dream dress created especially for the exhibition, a dress inspired by the colours of dreams, a synesthesia between feelings and colours.

The catwalk was a mix between fashion exhibition and performance, the great
Amy 'Synth' Elizabeth Kingsmill rocked the show by bringing her surrealist creativity.
During the catwalk the two Lego girls were in charge to take of the dolls dress to reveal a fake latex naked body

Flower dress for Half Baked at Bar90 Hachney Wick |
I did my flower dress performance that I also did at the bar 90 in Hackney It was a great experience on the catwalk as the interaction with the audience make the dress accessible to them abolishing the sacred frontier between people and a fashion garment. the audience can build the dress by adding flower to the garden wire, and be part of the evolutive design directly on the catwalk going from a rough metalic structure to an organic embellishment.
This interactive performance conveys me a paradoxical feeling of completeness and dispossession at the same time.

My own fashion week:
I met my friend and great street style photographer
Marie Paola.
Follow her on instagram!) i was wearing my Frida Kahlo inspired headpiece with fairies from Pound land and my rubber colourful dress. Colours attract people & photographer eyes and it is funny to go to fashion weak wearing a dress which is more a costume than a fashionable piece, theatrical, atemporal and outrageous!
|
Ideas are in the air, colours were all over the London fashion week, subculture fashion seems to take over bigger brand aesthetic as Jeremy Scott the using beads, toys and colourful up cycling elements. |

My 5 sec of fame Warhol moment on Canal + for Le Petit Journal (watch the replay) 19min 58 on the video they got it wrong it is not a "post it" dress but a rainbow rubber dress! |
Another big piece made for Sue Kreitzman,
Inspired by an aesthetic I am not familiar with, fairy fantasy, a mix between nymphs from the gamers world and a celtic imagery, combined with creature from the forest, dragonflies and butterfly with a lot of elements from the vegetables kingdom sourced during my adventurous scavenger hunt in London flea market and charity shop!
