PUGH

Yeah, yeah, yeah.  Obsessing over another draped, black jacket.  Nothing new.  Also loving this video showing Pugh's process while creating a one-off dress for Nick Knight's SHOWStudio Shop.  I love how much of a motherfucker almost all his stuff would be in the production stages.  Probably why so few of his designs go to retail.

DEEP SEA

So you may have seen my post about Lindsey Adelman's 'Knotty Bubbles' here.  Recently, I came across the above images on their blog which they used before their official site was up and running.  There isn't a whole lot on there but the posts give an interesting insight into their process.  I love the organic forms in the images above and want some to wear! Although their blog is no longer active, you can find it here. 

RICK OWENS APT

All kinds of obsessed with these images of Rick Owens and wife Michèle Lamy's Paris home that have been floating around the blogosphere for quite some time.  The mix of stone and fur is best described by Wallpaper* Magazine as 'monolithic'.  Recently, I've been interested in the idea of occupying space.  It is really something to look at these photos and imagine Rick Owens and his wife living and creating in these spaces, let alone going about simple tasks like making a cup of tea in that extraordinary kitchen space.  

I've also watched this interview between Rick, Michèle and Maria Luisa for thecorner.com several times.  I'm fascinated the professional and romantic relationship Owens and Lamy share.  I remember reading somewhere that he was introduced to her by his boyfriend at the time and then worked for her for a couple of years.  Someone should write a biography about Michèle. I love how modern their partnership is. 

I realise this is slowly evolving into a Rick Owens appreciation blog.  I'm completely unapologetic.
