Bernhard Willhelm & Jutta Kraus

I just got the new book Bernhard Willhelm & Jutta Kraus, and in the same week found one of his dresses second hand. The middle image was taken from fashionising.com. It's part of his SS2010 collection. The other images are the front and back cover of the book. xxxx

Matohu

I was having a look around for nice screen-prints because of my course and I came across Matohu, who showed at Tokoyo Fashion Week, Spring 2010. I spent more time looking at the purple dyeing effects than the prints. Have to try it. Images via coolechicstylefashion. xxxx

Recent digital fabrics

Here's some nice digitally printed fabric I've seen around lately (from top to bottom): Basso & Brooke; Australian designers Trust Fun, and a top by Bernhard Willhelm which looks much more vibrant in real life. Images are from their respective websites. xxxx

Nick Knight, John Young

John Young's 2008 paintings (above) look like abstract versions of Nick Knight's earlier photographs (below). You can see more of John Young's work here, and Nick Knight here. xxxx

Market Stall, Thai fashion and some zines

Next Saturday I'm gonna do a market stall at Glebe, selling clothes from Hey Pilgrim, a Bangkok streetwear label I found a while back. I'll also sell second-hand clothes, and if I get time to finish them, some zines I've been making. My friend Anna is gonna do the stall with me selling handmade cards.

The clothing images above are from Hey Pilgrim (you can see more on their website). And the images below are the cover of a zine I'm making about plant cuttings and a previous zine that I'll convert to black and white (and perhaps spot red). xxxx

Plant lampshades and some elegant bags

Here's some cute plant/lampshade things by Helmut Smits via balkon-garten, and some beautiful bags and purses by Vlieger & Vandam, Rotterdam, which I found at my local Gorman store. xxxx

Kitchen with hanging plants and cool shoes

While I'm on the subject of gardens and plants here's a kitchen I love (found via 2 or 3 things). Also some cool shoes that are a collaboration between Vivienne Westwood and Melissa. xxxx

PLAY Comme des Garçons

I'm usually not one to buy a product based on it's logo, but I did make an exception the other day when I found one of these on sale. The above t-shirt has the logo for PLAY, Comme des Garçons on it. I found out via Sakato that Filippa Gowski, who did the artwork, has also done some textile prints for Comme des Garçons, as well as lots of other logo and print work. You can find the above t-shirts here. xxxx

More Triangles

These fantastic dresses were shown at Paris Fashion Week by Korean designer Lie Sang Bong. I found the images on the SMH website and the invitation via Lie Sang Bong's official site. xxxx

Triangles

Shoes by Cesare Paciotti and packaging design by Niels Fryst who I came across via Balladora Typographica. I found the shoes in a fashion mag. xxxx

Designers from Antwerp

Today I got a book called Fashion Now 2, which is a selection of contemporary fashion from around the world, chosen from the people from I-D Magazine. Two of the really colourful standouts in the book are Dirk Van Saene, and Walter Van Beirendonck who are both designers from Antwerp. They are part of a group known as the Antwerp six, which you can read about here. I was interested to read that designers from Antwerp are a huge sucess in Japan, some of them exporting to the Japanese market only. Just when I thought I'd finally found an influence from a country other than Japan, I find out that theres a Japanese story attatched. I've really gotta go there ....... xxxx

Cute stuff from other blogs

In between jobs today I was surfing around and found some nice things. At Boobook Sausage Dog I found this amazing artist, Yeondoo Jung from Korea (above) who does photo shoots of children's drawings. I also found two really good fashion blogs: Breathe Design and Dress of the Day. xxxx

Ivana Helsinki and some graphic windows

The top images are photo's of some glass windows from an apartment block down the road. I added the black and white shapes in Illustrator. And the striped dresses are by Ivana Helsinki who I found via Fly Girls. xxxx

Hermes purses

At the start of this year I was a lucky girl and got this cute Hermes keyring as an anniversary present. I was just looking at their website and saw these coin purses. Love them all, but my favourites are the aubergine, bananas and pig! I scanned my keyring and got the purse images off the Hermes website. xxxx

Well Spotted

I went to a really cute sale today. T-shirts for kids by Well Spotted. The sale is at Publisher Textiles, where they make really nice printed fabric and wallpaper. The sale is on till Sunday. If you miss it you can get these t-shirts online at the Well Spotted webiste. xxxx

Boo Foo Woo

Today I went to a showing of the world's best kids label, Boo Foo Woo. Here's a bag and a hat of theirs - but everything they do is so amazing. The small details are incredible. Some of the best designs I've ever seen! The image is from their website. xxxx
