Masculin/Feminin by Mimi Parent

iheartmyart:

Mimi Benoît Parent

French-Canadian painter and engraver (b. Sept. 8, 1924, Montreal, Que.—d. June 14, 2005, Switzerland), participated in most of the major Surrealist exhibitions of the mid-20th century, including the 1959 “Eros” exhibit in Paris; her masculine-feminine poster featured a tie fashioned from her own hair, set against a man’s suit lapels and white shirt. She studied at the École des Beaux Artes de Montréal, where she met Jean Benoît, an artist whom she later married.

Ladylike, graceful wanderers

Based upon “the idea of sleepwalking and existing between worlds”

…And, perhaps, a little Maxfield Parrish?

Love always for Kate and Laura (and Nicholas Kirkwood – those shoes!)

I want a baby white tiger when I move to Hellsville, Madagasgar.

Lauren from Indecorous Taste is killing me here with her industrial-chains-and-crystal adorned lucite uber-wedges — seriously, if you’re going to do shoe-bling, go the whole nine yards.  My meager stud-strap ankle boots are put to shame!

Dear readers — of which there are, somehow, thousands of you (why?! how?! when!?) — I know you’re all here from idle clicking or to look at photos of my shoes and of skinny girls in absurd dresses or whatever, but this is the stuff I want you to read and want you to talk about — and want to know what you think too. This is important, this is what I actually want you to read and care about and comment and talk about.

And another disclaimer: nothing I’m going to say here is new; everything are ideas expressed by other people as well, often more eloquently, and many of which I’ve posted before — Jenna at Jezebel, the girls at Threadbared, a lot of the wonderful ladies on my blogroll, some of the other commenters at Contexts, some of the lovely folks who also post at TFS — everyone has these ideas, and there is a lot more to be said about it. I’m just getting it out there with how and why I agree.

I am sick and tired of hearing that fashion is stupid, silly, inane, shallow, for girls, a waste of time, consumerist, idiotic, antifeminist, misogynistic, pathetic, etc, etc, ad nauseam, and this is why.

i wonder who will design for it? olivier theyskens immediately comes to mind, but what about gareth?

(via tulletulle)

Oh god, if Gareth Pugh takes over McQueen I’ll wear black for a year. And I hope they don’t do a “team” thing, because a design “team” has never been successful.

Olivier..hm…

I kind of don’t want them to continue at all. It’s nice to think that Spring was the last collection because it ended on such a high note. And it’s not like Chanel or Dior where a look was created and can be reinterpreted and reinvented by new designers. The line just was HIM.

 No one else could possibly sustain the McQueen line like he did. If anyone got close though, it would be Olivier.

YES

NOT YES. This is awful, (yet funny) but awful because the designer is dead now. I just can’t get over it. He was so inspirational to me.
