Friday 6th October: LFW SS18 - MM6 Maison Margiela










For SS18 MM6 Maison Margiela took over an empty premises on Floral Street and white-washed the entire thing......... even the bollards outside on the street!  Guests to the event could enter and view the collection in an installation or live photoshoot whilst the public could watch models on rotation in the windows.  I love how the lettering of the print is carried across the jacket onto the bare skin of the chest.  

See last season's presentation here.

Weds 9th Sept: Free art in Covent Garden





French artist Charles Pétillon 's first public art installation "HeartBeat" is 100,000 giant white balloons filling the length of the ceiling in the 19th Century Covent Garden Market Building.  Light inside the structure pulsates glowing bright and dull replicating the beat of a heart but a massive cloud cluster of balloons.  Its free to view until the end of month which I doubled up with a visit to see the "Deloitte Ignite 15" light show projection on the Royal Opera House in the main square.  Rainbows and clouds in one night - my dream.
