SERIOUS FASHION INSPIRATION: MORE CHRISTY TURLINGTON

The Stephen Willats' Variable Sheets Dress, conceived in 1965, "could be adapted by the wearer to send messages, by configuring the zippered panels in different ways and inserting messages or signs into their pockets." Drawing on theories of social interaction and communication, this 1965 dress is like the modern cell phone. 

Stephen Willats is a pioneer of conceptual art. Since the early 1960s he has created work concerned with extending the territory in which art functions. His work has involved interdisciplinary processes and theory from sociology, systems analysis, cybernetics, semiotics and philosophy.

This skirt is amazing, although at 3000 Euro it's a little over the top for me... For more Azzaro items, including the beautiful Dress Genial (4300 Euro), go to Colette. To look at the complete Fall 2009 RTW, go here


Loris Azzaro (February 9, 1933 - November 20, 2003) was a French fashion designer. He was born in Tunisia from Sicilian parents and came to Paris to set up his line in 1962. By 1968 his business was a huge success. He was well known for making glamorous party dresses for the elite of French society. Often his creations featured ornate beading and daring cut outs. He was also known to use brightly colored chains woven onto shirts to make intricate chainmail dresses and tops. Over the course of his long career he dressed numerous celebrities including Sophia Loren, Raquel Welch, Marisa Berenson, Claudia Cardinale, Isabelle Adjani, Kate Winslet and Nicole Kidman. In 2004 French designer Vanessa Seward took over as head designer of the Azzaro label. The Azzaro label continues to release clothing but is now more well known for their fragrance line. Original Loris Azzaro vintage pieces are still very much in demand.

In related news: Gianni Versace was a good friend of the Jackson family, and one of Michael Jackson's favorite designers.  During the Michael Jackson memorial, the whole family was dressed in custom made Versace. Apparently Janet Jackson contacted Donatella Versace to organize their clothing for the event, including black suits with gold ties and glittering gloves for the guys, and well cut dresses and hats for the women. Below is Michael Jackson in Versace during his HIStory tour in 1997.

Says Bless: "What could be read fast as "new shit" is with a closer look as well the definition of the eternal Bless way: the pronounced unimportance of gender difference. Bless clothes fit as always according to everyones need to all 3 genders, including things. And eventough once again the collection is composed of an individual selection, simply juxtaposed  with no strong connection or relationship, there is partially something going on what you could finally and eventually define as a "theme": the 3D anaglyph effect. You find it in the Shopscarf, that features in 3D the numbers how to reach both shops in Berlin and Paris, in a metallic print aswell as on belts and on knitwear in the new 3D starcut."
