Watching my favorite a-diva on stage after my Thanksgiving celebration subsided and my steak, roast beef, rice, etc. (yum!) digested, I was like… Ok! She is definitely the baddest chick in the game! Hardest working as well. I think the only person that works harder is her costume designer:

Her creative advisor and costume designer for her “I Am… Yours” tour, Thierry Mugler, shut it down with crystal embellished leotards, shard shouldered jackets, sculpted hip detail, animal prints, and rhythm ready corset’s. Whether it’s the famous “Halo” wedding gown, sheer panel leotard with matching cut-out glove, or her flame burst, cheetah printed, red light bust bearing (what’s really good with that?) one-piece, she has just as much hits in the wardrobe sector as she does in the music sector.

I have pulled some “I Am… Yours” inspired looks for all my a-diva’s!

1. Pineapple Leopard Scoop Neck Body $50.99

2. ASOS BLACK Fitted Piped Gold & Black Jacquard Dress $144.48

3. Dune Jadore Double Diamante Bow Shoe  $168.27

Stolen Magnolia av Jacco Bregonje

Den något speciellt med den grafiskt mönstrade stolen Magnolia, designad av Jacco Bregonje för Artifort. Det är roligt hur vissa stolar, precis som vi människor, blir bra på bild. Det här är ju en riktig fotomodell! Här hittade jag en klocka i samma genre, en supermodell.

Дерек Лэм (Derek Lam) родился в 1967 году в Сан-Франциско, США. Лэм с детства был вовлечен в процесс создания одежды, так как его бабушка и дедушка были владельцами швейной фабрики в Сан-Франциско по пошиву свадебных платьев. Профессиональное образование он получил в «Parsons School of Design». После окончания обучения в 1990 году, Лэм стажировался в Доме моды «Michael Kors».

В 2003 году Дерек Лэм (Derek Lam) основал свой лейбл и в сентябре этого же года представил свою дебютную коллекцию в рамках Недели моды в Нью-Йорке. Через два года он был удостоен «CFDA Swarovski Perry Ellis Award».

Пьер Арди (Pierre Hardy) родился во Франции. Первоначально, он занимался танцами и изобразительным искусством, но затем понял, что более всего ему интересно придумывать обувь. В 1988 году, Арди устроился на работу в Дом моды «Christian Dior».

Стоит отметить, что Пьер Арди (Pierre Hardy), помимо разработки дизайна обуви под собственной маркой, является одновременно и дизайнером ювелирных украшений Дома моды «Hermes». При этом он чаще всего выбирает серебро вместо золота, создавая лаконичные украшения. Его первая коллекция для этого бренда была создана в 1990 году.

Поль Пуаре (Paul Poiret) родился 8 апреля 1879 года в Париже, Франция. Его родители были торговцами тканей. После окончания школы, отец Поля устроил его на работу к изготовителю зонтиков. Проработав некоторое время, он увольняется, но при этом прихватывает значительное количество лоскутков тканей, из которых еще долгое время создавал платья для кукол. Впоследствии, он устраиваться на работу к Жаку Дусе (Jacques Doucet), где познает азы портновского искусства.

После возвращения со службы в армии, Поль Пуаре (Paul Poiret) устраивается на работу к Чарльзу Фредерику Ворту (Charles Frederick Worth). Однако он так и не смог достичь там успеха, во многом из-за того, что этого не желали сыновья Ворта, Жан-Филипп и Гастон, которые унаследовали дело отца. В результате, мама Пуаре дает ему 50 тысяч франков и, он открывает в 1093 году собственный салон моды. Его первой клиенткой стала популярная актриса Режан. Вскоре Пуаре сам становится знаменитым и, его модели начинают носить многие француженки. В 1906 году он создал узкое длинное платье, юбка которого начиналась от груди. Во многом, его революционный силуэт был основан на требовании женщин изменений одежды, а также эталонных образцах стиля модерн. В результате, Пуаре заменил корсет гибким бюстгальтером и поясом для чулок. Он также отказывается от пастельных тонов, заменяя их сочными красками и невероятными цветочными узорами. Стоит отметить, что именно Поль Пуаре (Paul Poiret) привнес еще одно новшество — шелковые чулки телесного цвета, которые были популярны не только среди женщин, но и мужчин.

В 1910 году, Поль Пуаре (Paul Poiret) представил «хромую юбку», которая была очень сильно заужена книзу, что женщины могли передвигаться только маленькими шажками. Однако такие юбки не стали пользоваться успехом. Несмотря на явную неудачу, Пуаре уже создавал новый тренд. Его восточные наряды, вдохновленные постановками Сергея Павловича Дягилева «Синий бог» и «Шехерезада», стали триумфом кутюрье. Он ввел в моду кафтаны, тюрбаны и вуали, украшенные кружевами, бахромой, жемчугом и перьями. В 1911 году он провел свой самый грандиозный показ под названием «1002-я ночь».

Mark Fast, the Canadian wunderkind knits designer who made a splash at London Fashion Week for using size 14 models, has been shortlisted for the Swarovski Emerging Talent Award for Ready to Wear.  Every year, the British Fashion Council recognizes an influential and directional designer who is emerging as an influential force in British Fashion.  Previous winners include Stella McCartney, Giles Deacon, Louise Goldin, and Antonio Berardi

Mark designs by hand on a domestic knitting machine. His work is formed onto the body as he knits, and he has devised innovative stitching techniques, blending lycra with viscose, angora or wool. He is inspired by the endless possibilities of lycra yarns, sculpting areas of tension and areas of volume over the body. Mark’s fascination with the cinema drives his creative process as he channels the energy of the characters who inspire him into his knits. Obsessed with texture, Mark’s most recent work explores the relationship of garments to the wearers body.

To draw focus to the draping, density and volume of the dresses as they relate to women’s bodies and to challenge traditional notions of fit and idealized body shape, Mark bucked tradition and used size 14 models in his SS10 runway show, causing an uproar at London Fashion Week.   To qurote Mark from a recent interview in Sunday Times Style, “Knits have a more intimate relationship with the wearer than tailoring or corsetry. The garment takes on the shape of the person inside it, and the finished look is always a collaboration between the two.”

Mark Fast will be available starting December at Curve LA and NY.

bon Heath is one of the most promising artists of the moment and his take on typography is pure visual poetry. Words never looked more astonishing, they form their own structures in a short of a rebellion, they dance and move and yet they stand still. In Heath’s universe, words go out of their suffocating homes, they become alive and they tell us their amazing stories. Having Brooklyn as the quarters of his inspiration, Heath is contaminating his students with his enthusiasm and passion. With his work he is trying to visualize the invisible, to put a form to the surrounding sounds of the every day life and to inject fantasy into reality. Inspired traveller and rhythm lover, Heath is revealing us all the details hidden behind his outstanding work in an exclusive interview for Yatzer. His sculptures gives the impression of being crystalized words turned into frozen flowers.  We connect this with your quote about perceiving words as a living, corporal being. ” I want our type to jump, scream, whisper and dance, versus lay flat, dead and dormant, to be used and discarded with no concern for its intricate beauty of form, function, and meaning. We use type daily yet rarely appreciate the form of a letter. By liberating type from the confines of the page we not only free the words to express the content in a new dimension of scale, volume, and movement, but also force the reader to become a viewer. This process reveals the form of our letters while creating a new relationship to our language in our ability to feel versus only read the content” say Heath.”I love the visual of crystalized words as frozen flowers. This is clear on a visual level, yet also the form of the flower has evolved to fulfill a specific function. All the subservient smaller bio chemical reactions that make up its structure on a molecular level, all co-operating to create a living organism. The form of my type structures are also made to fulfill a specific goal to express the content of words, while made up of smaller ingredients of letters that collectively form our language. The prints do have a frozen quality, since the original works are mobiles that move and can be seen from multiple perspectives in a space. It also is ironic that when these structures are documented they are flattened into 2-dimensional planes, the very antithesis of my initial goal.  

 
The structures are a physical representation of our language as object. This “visual noise” permeates all aspects of modern culture, especially urban living. From the signs, billboards, stores, and t-shirts that yell with type for attention as you walk down any high street. All the audio and verbal noise, from music we plug our ears with to the din of countless conversations, screams and whispers. With new media of texting, online, and transmitted technology there is even invisible noise silent to the eye surrounding us all. It is this cozy womb of information, data, or chorus of cacophony that my mobiles hope to represent as well as reveal. Making the invisible visible. The lyrical qualities of hip hop highlight this connection of the liberated language. When a MC rides a beat the words become a fusion of song, noise, rhythm, melody and meaning all at once. This synthesis between words and sounds was the first investigation i had undertook to help me understand this conceptual process. This wrestling with language is also reflected in the visual poetry of more formal graffiti that transforms each letter into interlocking shapes that are unique in its form and identity of the author. As in all good poetry, the skilled MC uses rhythm more then rhyme to express the message, my mobiles attempts to create a visual sense of rhythm and flow that is alive, not contained, or able to be seen/ read/ understood from one angle.

The stereo.type project, expressing the interaction between the traditional language of typography and the physical language of the body, consists of three parts. The first part was a process of research and development. Creating countless drawings, computer renderings, and three dimensional models to find the desired structural frame work for this new physical typographic language. The visual inspiration for these structures has varied from fishing nets to animal vertebrae, puppets to kites, feathers to scales, domes to parachutes, classical lace to high end couture fashion, traveling from Brooklyn to Andalusia, Berlin to Marrakech, to Carnival in London and Trinidad.  The final product of this phase is a process journal that documents all the steps leading to the establishment of the final four grid structures. The current second phase is exercising the established grids, to learn how many different kinds of content can be expressed in these structures. This phase is also about creating mobiles and site specific installation for exhibit to share with the public, and learn from their reactions. This also extends to more couture mobiles that are created for a specific person based off their relationship to the content of the mobile. A seasonal collection of mobiles, prints, lights, and jewelry are being developed for release in the summer of 09. Each season will focus on a different theme and execution method. The third stage is incorporating the body into a performance piece of type dancing a duet with its author. The goal is to create a ballet of people dancing with their liberated language, as if the body was shedding its accumulated stories physically, as well as amplifying the content of our inner soul for the world to see in its dynamic dance. This event will combine aspects of carnival, circus, choreography, kinetic body sculpture, music, and the Greek chorus.  

 
I have developed four 3-d grid systems that, like traditional type design, provide an underlying foundation for type to be anchored to. These grids are malleable and do not limit the form as much as create a support skeleton. These 4 grids are based off the basic shapes of the cone, stripe, line, and circle. To establish these systems there has been countless drawings and models created to establish structural integrity and functionality. The quantity of letters, typeface, and scale all determine the final form. Unlike traditional type design there is the third dimension, an additional perspective outside of the page which allows the movement of the structures and your eyes positions to them. The tools and components I use come from a wide range of crafts, including: fishing tackle, jelwery elements, kite pieces, laser cut acrylic and tyvek. My working process has a specific set of steps that collectively create these expressive typographic mobiles as if solving an equation, rather then from some cosmic inspiration.

 
I teach at a City University in the Bronx (New York, USA), which gives me access to students that are fully engaged in life and do not take their education for granted. This role allows me to inspire young people to see type and design as a career choice and/ or a way to express themselves visually. By highlighting the analytical nature of design and importance of paying attention to details, I am also able to give the students a new way of seeing their surroundings. With design software and computers being mainstream, new media literacy is expected of all students. Yet knowing how to operate a computer does not make you a designer. I feel all professionals have a responsibility to share their knowledge, while also staying open to learn more.  The students keep me informed on the latest ideas of youth culture that my growing age makes harder to recognize. I am also writing course curriculum which enables me to map out my method of teaching and how it stays relevant to students lives or current trends.

 
Calder has been one of the most influential artists in my life, at a very young age i saw his circus and was mesmerized. That same day i began drawing and have not stopped. Only recently did i notice the parallel of my typographic ballet and the performance element of his circus. I am also inspired by his ability to play with simple forms and materials to create a new visual vocabulary that blurs the lines between art, design, function and expression (from his mobiles, and stables to his jewelry and wire portraits). He was also one of the first American artists to be an international globe trotter, hanging out in Europe and the states crossing the Atlantic regularly by boat. (Warhol for making the common into art, Basquiat for burning so fast and so bright, and Stuart Davis for American abstraction in the modern flat world of color.) I was introduced to the rich culture of Carnival from the Caribbean island of Trinidad, by another admired living artist and mentor, Peter Minshal. Minshal is the founder of Callaloo Company, which has been producing the avant-garde carnival bands of kinetic body sculpture for the last 30 years. He shared his knowledge of the intricate craft of constructing physical sculpture that amplifies the human gesture into a grand scale with an individual or collective of people. Next thing you know i am watching 20 foot skeletons he has made grinding with the Rockets on stage at Radio City Music Hall (in NYC).

 
Purge is quite similar conceptually yet utilizing images rather than purely type. It is an answer to the question: How can we reveal the abundance of visual information we mentally accumulate? The aim is to purge all the influence we receive from media stimulation and liberate our mind to a less polluted place. It’s about reclaiming our mental environment, killing the television, cellphone suicide, unplugging our addiction for constant entertainment. I felt engorged by all the information my eyes have eaten and needed to purge, a visual vomit. This process began with classifying logos, languages, images of mass culture from my travels, all as recipe ingredients for collage. Then I draw the found media, like a painter would draw a still life, or a musician might sample a beat. All these “sample drawings” become the raw materials for a lengthy process of digital deconstruction and analog reconstruction, resulting in paintings, mobiles, and drawings. These visual mash ups allows the viewer to navigate ones own narrative in the channel surfing barrage of exploding familiar faces, logos, and contrasting color and form. I am currently completing a series of large scale paintings that are cutting and masking paint into sharp graphic compositions. Although Purge and stereotype are made of and result in very different outcomes, there is many similarities in conceptual goals and values. Technology gives me the ability to be more efficient and more precise in my craft, yet not necessarily more freedom to create. Cutting by hand is very time intensive compared to the speed and accuracy of lasers. Laser also gives me the ability to cut multiples at once out of materials I am unable to be cut by hand. It also creates an easier manageability of scale. However, cutting is only one step, the hand assembly is still quiet labour intensive and is not made simpler or more dynamic by technology. In fact much of this work makes a statement that supports the traditional craft of analog construction versus containing all living things into pixels, trying to duplicate reality instead of truly living in it. Since much of my professional graphic design work is dictated by technology, it is refreshing to use my fingers to actually build instead of a virtual illustration.

edefinition of an existing object is not always an easy task. Above all it requires imagination, creativity and a good knowledge of the techniques to be applied. Especially when we are talking about simple things like a stool; in other words a chair without a backrest. Every now and then new innovating stool designs come up in an attempt to make the difference. Daniel Heer’s vision is to create a modern piece of furniture by matching two different materials in a simple way, a combination of wood and textile.

KEIL is a cubic form stool that can be used in different ways changing its position or height. Trying not to hurt the material, Daniel doesn’t use any pins allowing this way the wood to interfere with the textile, a combination that turns the whole project into beautiful seating furniture. High quality materials are used, native wood (oak, walnut, pear) for the frame and fabric straps, premium grade leather or transparent nylon webbing for the seating part. Both elements are mixed in such a way that allows the structure to show off as an essential part of the concept. The simplicity of Heer’s project also ensures the minimum use of resources. Based in Kreuzberg neighborhood of Berlin, Daniel Heer is an expert of the handcraft tradition, a legacy of his family’s over the past three generations. His vision is to use and transform the classical norms into a modern functional aesthetics. Keil as an object itself represents a reinterpretation of the classical techniques into a new form. This is more about a deconstruction of old traditional norms; by reconstructing them afresh, the designer is driven to a totally new concept free of conservative formulas. The benefit of such a procedure is that even the simplest, classical objects can be redefined in terms of design without modifying the original concept values. Photo © Achim Hatzius.

September 10-13, Saint Petersburg Beauty Expo “Nevskye Berega” at Sport and Concert Complex, having gathered more than 100,000 guests from many countries.

One of the brightest events in the field of the beauty industry took place in St-Petersburg. It lasted for four days, during which the city was attended by most noted professionals from different parts of the world: cosmetologists nail designers, masseurs, hairdressers, makeup designers, and project managers in the sphere of beauty-shop business, who just could not miss such an important event.

International Beauty Expo was accommodated on three levels of St-Petersburg Sport and Concert Complex (SCC), having an area of 15,000 m2. More than 350 companies, representing most leading brands of cosmetology, nail design, hair-styling, and presenting their most up-to-date developments, took part in the event. The exhibitors in the sector of cosmetologists and massage technologies specialists were especially noted. It is a well known fact that beauty is closely connected with one’s health, that is why more and more attention is being paid to this branch. This year nail industry was also represented on a grand scale: there took place master classes of different nail-design schools, and leading companies demonstrated their most recent developments.

For the first time within the framework of Nevskye Berega International Beauty Expo there was presented a special programme, delivered by famous stylists from Sassoon Academy, London, including Edward Darley, UK Color Director and Danielle Harvey, Senior Creative Director.

Throughout these four days visitors could also enjoy mastery of technique, displayed by stylists. Edward and Danielle were impressed by the scope of the festival and high professionalism of our masters, so they plan to come back to St. Petersburg with a special programme to attend Nevskye Berega on February 19-23, 2010.

The agenda of the events for specialists, working in different branches of the beauty industry, managed to attract a really huge number of them, and we may witness some steady interest in training programmes that professionals inevitably take. The events of the Festival’s agenda embraced all beauty-salon trends and branches, having paid attention to different aspects of beauty-salon business development and raising the level of masters’ and managers’ skills.
