June 2, 2009

Preschool Tunics

September 2, 2008

I remember when cutting heart and moon shapes from folded paper was neverending fun, and oh, snowflakes were great, too.  The designers of Rabbit On the Run seem to have ran on this idea, making tunic tees from metallic and vivid cut-outs. The idea reflects the different, independent, free and spontaneous universe of Julie Thevnot. The patterns are a result of various experiments around cutting and folding for an unplanned symmetry, taking one step above my fashion preschool days. And the Pipeline gushes how the A/W ‘09 mini collection, Dakala and Disco Tee are works of art incoming from Paris to NYC . The coral Dakala version is sold out on Pixie Market in LA, but you can purchase them on Rabbit’s site. Maybe I’ll start a D.I.Y project if I can find some eye-popping fabrics and shears! 

takashi murakami returns to blum and poe

May 5, 2008

i hopped over to takashi murakami’s opening at blum and poe saturday night, and found myself in awe. pretty shocking–his abstract paintings were ranging in all colors, spots, blurbs, and splashes. if the paintings could speak they’d pop! in true psychedellic fashion, the more one stares at the parintings the more they seem to razzle and dazzle before your eyes.

i have more photos to show, in fact, funner, crazier ones! if you are interested in featuring my photos for a blog or editorial spread please email me at janice.momo.chow@gmail.com.
