Iris van Herpen, Paris - Fall 2014
I absolutely adore Iris van Herpen's style, artistic endeavor and philosophy. Perfect. Naming this Fall's 2014 Paris show under "Biopiracy", I can't stress enough the importance (which is possibly being conveyed by van Herpen), of humanities removal from the natural world - by looking at the natural world as indifferent to us, in the sense of our impact on it and it's impact on us. This is what I get from her designs and overall temperament within her outlook - which is completely ingrained in a futurist concept of materials, cuts and creations that are purely human made and orientated. That being no "Fur/animal" and/or no objects drawn and taken from nature, but rather a duplication or distinctly humanist styling that does not connect to the natural environment.
Subtle creams and browns matched with radiant blues and black, overlaid with a metallic shimmer. Power and defiance thrives within a sexual wonderland - our dystopian future awaits.
