Starstyling

Starstyling is kind of an unisex fashion brand from germany.
By using holograms and different colours, geometric prints they create interesting pieces.
Below are randomly posted images from their past collections from starstyling website :

Phyllis Galembo

Other similar artist that I found...
Master of Fine Arts (Photography/Printmaking) , is the definition of him on his biographic.

Nick Cave can do performance and Phyllis Galembo the exhibition... or they also can collaborate... I actually remember that i have heard themm doing project together, i should check for it...

I am but afraid that might be TOO MUCH , I mean, they are really colourfur strong artists, so it might be too much to collaborate with Vivienne who has strong identity as well.

I should do more research.. more studying.. buuuuu

Nick Cave

Best known for Soundsuits artis: wearable fabric sculptures that are bright, whimsical, and other-worldly.
Also american fabric sculptor, dancer, and performance artist... ..
I thought he might be the one to work with Vivienne Westwood ... What do you guys think?
He's mixing soundart with fashion. Vivienne borned with Punk music, and is always going further.

Nick cave is far from the punck music, but now that things are changing with Vivienne as well, I thought will be great chance for the upcoming topic, collaborating with him.

Riccardo Tisci's studio

Riccardo Tisci, head designer of Givenchy is the youngest couturier in history.
He is one of my favorite designers... and while searching youtube, I found this video showing his studio!
Though it is 2years ago and really short, I thought it was interesting to see him standing
in his studio explaining his own designs.

I was interested in the fact that Riccardo likes to mix up totally different ideas when he develops his own collection, such as David bowie and Africa.
While studying fashion, I've always learnt that when u think of a concept that mixes up different things u should have a specific reason or at least think really hard about why u want to mix them up.
However he looked as if he was just mixing them up for a better design-- a better looking.
Nobody cares about why David bowie has to mix up with Africa, they just like the gorgeous outfit...inspired by those two things.
and I'm thinking again about concept<design or concept>design
maybe the latter should be called more "artistic"?

Erwin Wurm

Researching artist that can work for fashion brand.

I actually have to find for Vivienne and other Marangoni' student's collection.
But doing research, found Erwin Wurm, that I like.

It can match maybe with Jil Sander or Balenciaga.. just with the form of jacket,you can say martin margiela as well.. :3

Steven Meisel

Did I already write 'bout him?

well, it doesnt matter. He's doing so much tremendous job with fashion marketing.
Here's some of his works in 2011 for advertising in fashion business.

1.Prada s/s 2011
Down there, there's video of ad campaign 2011.
Can you see how he anounced the begining of spring season with vivid color,with sense of humor; funess, free spirited with crazyness? You should also compare with the video of Missoni that has worked with similar color but in different way.
