Fashion and sports though always had a connection but label DSQUARED2 has cited a bizarre trend statement with the launch of its Skate Moss, the 8 inches heeled ice skates. The sole of these high- heeled boots are made of rubber and have blades attached to it. The range includes four pairs of skating boots with high heels. An adoring fusion of laces and hooks along with laser-cut detailing blended in calf-skin leather contributes to this exquisite collection by the label. Although the boots center all the signature essence of the customary skates but reveals an exclusive high- ends approach.
Generally skates are constructed with very minimal height or are completely leveled to the ground because in case of ice skates the comfort zone is much prioritized than fashion. The boots are amazingly designed and engraved. But the range by DSQUARED2 is absolutely uncanny which has never come into notice earlier. Skating already tends to be pretty hard-hitting while these boots might increase the rate of menace by causing injury. People with excellent skills might too lose control while enjoying the skating session.
Fashion and art have this back scratching affair where each imbues the other. The fashion designers-donning-an-artist’s-hat is routinely but vice versa comes intriguingly. One of the latter kinds stunned the Capital and its art enthusiasts with his eccentric collection crafted intricately from everyday mundane objects.
The Delhi based artist Vivan Sundaram having played through different mediums like photography and sculpture came out with his latest project titled, ‘Gagawaka: Making Strange’ – a portmanteau of Lady Gaga and the FIFA World Cup Song ‘Waka Waka’ explores the idea of using all worldly things to make an object of art. Hence there is a wedding suit made of sanitary napkins, a dress made of paper cups, flowing gown of two hundred red bras, beautifully stitched with lace, a semi bandaged dress crafted out of a truck tyre tube with a long train et al.
A collection of 45 such sculptural garments made of the stuff like surgical gloves, kitchen sponge, eye masks, aluminum foil, wires, tubes, masks and many more such kind of items, in collaboration with fashion designer Pratima Pandey and few other NIFT graduates who helped the artist in detailing and fitting garments into human bodies.
The collection is priced between 4.5 lakhs to 7.5 lakhs and is on display till December 27 at Ravindra Bhavan Gallery at Lalit Kala Academy, New Delhi.
