Chi Zhang F/W 2011-12 Collection


Chi Zhang, one of China's emerging fashion designers recently presented his new collection for next winter, an amazing menswear line, one of the most interesting coming out from China at the moment.


Shorts, leggings and slim suits with fine leather detailing, strictly in black and white accessorized with jewellery encrusted gas masks, consisted a beautiful collection inspired by the rumoured end of the world during 2012.



With inspiration from Mad Max movie and a bit of S/M (two of my favourite fashion elements), the collection seems mature enough to be distributed in the West world.


Stay tuned for more, this guy is going to be smoke hot gun soon!

La Maison Champs-Elysées


Maison Martin Margiela presents its first hotel collaboration with La Maison Champs-Elysées, a spectacular space located within the historical building of the Maison de Centraliens, in the heart of Paris. 



Consisting of two buildings, one dating from the Second Empire under Napoleon III and the other built more recently, the legendary hotel has been recreated to a contemporary, artistic, ultra-luxury, surrealistic space.

La Maison Champs Elysees is slated to relaunch with the designs of Maison Martin Margiela in July 2011.


You can have a look at the  reconstruction procedure below:






Mixed Signals


A special exhibition currently running at the Andy Warhol Museum is titled Mixed Signals: Artists Consider Masculinity in Sports, featuring works that probe the stereotype of the American male athlete.

Well-known contemporary artists like Matthew Barney, Catherine Opie, Collier Schorr, Sam Taylor-Wood and many more demonstrate their thoughts about the male athlete figure through a special selection of photos, paintings and installations, emphasizing the decoding of its masculinity.

The exhibition will be on view through August the 7th.
