Had me until the part about the cigarette butts in the print. Tongue in cheek humor I get, but ewww. It would look awesome with a raggedy leather jacket
From the catalog description: "A far cry from the overwrought floral prints of festival-styles past, the digital rendition coloring this fluid McQ dress is strewn with cigarette butts, crushed water bottles and soda tabs in true festival fashion."
Trash printed on silk. How much more of-the-moment distressed deconstructionist precious can you get?
Wow, that close up of the fabric is really something. It's creative & maybe a bit subversive, but I'm not sure dressing as litter is the kind of help I really need. LOL
Oh no. The print makes me love it even more than I already do. It's the right amount of wrong. Also, every little drop of beauty you can squeeze out of the cold cruel city is infinitely precious.
Yeah. I'm the country sort. My cousin told me that. However, my mother is not, and I need to live much closer now with my father gone...
Interesting, Diana. To me blister packs and water bottle are worse. Leaves have always burned. But pills and plastics, they're innovative causal factors of two headed frogs and weak-shell eggs and nooses...
LOVE this, cigarette butts and all. To a casual onlooker, it looks like a floral, but it has a subversive quality because of the trash in the print. Love the concept AND the dress.
Yeah, I'm with Rachy. I like that it's pretty from far away and the meaning changes as you get a closer look. Of course, I have a habit/career based on looking at discarded things and making art out of them.
Love the shape of the dress. Though I am really drawn to taking the "sweet" out of a floral, I would prefer it to be done without a cigarette reference. Thanks for sharing!
