I know this is a dumb question, but what is that? I don't get it...

But I love it, whatever is it and however they did it.

Looks like it's a clear top, with poetry stitched out. She did an entire collection based on this.

For those who are interested (and thank you Mutterlein for making me look), there is a wonderful two-page interview with Ann in the current issue of Index magazine, along with some gorgeous archive pictures from her collections. She talks about her design philosophy again, about menswear, and about a certain horseprint shirt . Also some excellent pictures of her. Since she gives an interview about once in 10 years, and pictures of her are next to impossible to come by, I think this issue is a collectors item (well, for me anyway).

Oh, thanks. I couldn't see any edges anywhere, so I was confused.

I think in your neck of the woods, the biggest Barnes and Noble is your best bet.

I looked at their store list on their website, and it looks like no one sells it anywhere around here. I emailed them last week asking if I could order one directly from them, but they never replied. Those bastards.

I want this belt...

The Index mag interview is wonderful, I rea dit a few days ago.

[raijin]

Its quite nice.

Im sure you can get it from Minority Rev if you can't find it elsewhere.

I love the belts that both Raijin and Softigrey posted..especially Raijin's. For the rest of the pictures I saw, though, I found a lack of originality. I did like the leather jacket, and I somewhat liked the pants. I know Ann D. has very nice work, so I certainly won't judge her by this and she is obviously NOT unoriginal. But, in those pictures, there wasn't anything really special except the belt and the jacket. The t-shirts, were, of course, original..but then again, I t-shirts.

I definately have to see if they have Index in my B&N, I'm going to call asap and see. Is Index a fashion magazine? Because if it is, I can't get a suscription..but if it's design in general..heck yeah!

[Arturo21]

Thankyou so much, Faust, for those links! I'm in love!! There are several designers there that I haven't heard of and seem promising.

[raijin]

Arturo, I wouldn't call Index so much of a design magazine - It is not like ID or Wallpaper.
It has a lot of interviews with indie artists and bands and some other stuff.

Maybe not your kind of thing?

Honestly I did not care for much of thier issues except for this one.
