DESIGN + INSPIRATION: Valerj Pobega Corset/Dinka Inspiration


In this posting I am taking the time to write about one piece from Gen Art designer Valerj Pobega's collection. That piece is this corset shown in the Spring 2010 runway show.

It seems to be inspired by this:



These intricately beaded corsets are worn as everyday wear by Dinka men in Sudan. Their exquisite shape and stunning colors have landed them in museums across the world. I hope to one day have one of these rare pieces in my own wardrobe.

In the meantime I think the Valerj Pobega version is a simplified wearable piece that I could really work into my closet.

DESIGN: Louise Gray Spring 2010 vs. Jean Michel Basquiat



Is it just me or was Louise Gray studying Basquiat while designing her Spring 2010 collection? Let me know your thoughts.....












No, really. I want to know...

Many are already raving about this collection. With South African inspiration still fresh in my mind, Rodarte Spring 2010 really speaks to me. I LOVE the arm art!!!!
