thanks for posting!

one of the most refreshing things i've seen in ages! love the giant bra!
and the lace is amazingly beautiful!

 

[MulletProof]

oh my runner.. .. all of their creations, their concept and vision.. it just speaks to me on such a personal level.. I can't stop looking at it.. and I agree with verkeerd, I haven't been so moved by a label's creativity in at least 2 years, this is so beautiful, I'm sure Scott, Tinetush and Strawberry are going to devour this..

I guess the first set was photographed by Carlotta Manaigo?, I saved the lace globe photograph in June but I can't remember where I found it for the life of me..

Wow....just absolutely in awe....thanks for posting, runner. The photography is beyond stunning and the garments just speak volumes

writtenafterwards are on the JFW schedule, showing installation-style on Sept. 4th at 14:00 at a Puppet Theater. Should be good

 

[Scott]

j'adore!!!! my bottom lip is on the floor,so you know this is absolutely stunningly creative.......indeed perhaps the most refreshing thing i've seen in a while. wow

thank you dear runner for bestowing us with such wonder,yet again

 

[Scott]

installation....that's absolutely perfect for what they do. catwalks would never represent their spirit as appropriately and dynamically.
