I’m A Good Socialist Project – Sadak

Art, The Masters | No Comments

Here’s a look at some conceptual fashion blurring the line between making clothing and making art. Images are from the “I’m a good socialist” project created by Sadak. Damn good stuff.

From the designer: “I’m a good socialist” began with research about Socialism in Former-Yugoslavia during the 1960s, the ideas from which Sasa Kovacevic applied to the creation of his own fictional “micro-nation”, named “Ex-Land”. The constitution of “this brave new” nation is described entirely through its fashion. The fashion of “Ex-Land” is a combination of traditional costume patterns from rural Serbia, optical illusion prints created in the “Western Block” in the 1960s, and socialist symbols and statements used as propaganda after WWII.”

We like the look of: COSTELLO TAGLIAPIETRA

Runway, The Masters, We Like The Look Of | No Comments

This dapper duo comprised of Robert Tagliapietra and Jeffrey Costello, may look like a couple of lumber-jacks, but they are two of the most incredible contemporary designers. They both grew up in working-class families on the East Coast and, as fate would have it, both of their grandmother’s were seamstresses at Norman Norell, an American designer circa 1940. They met and began collaborating in the 1990′s and formed COSTELLO TAGLIAPIETRA in 2005. These two visionaries were self taught and had no connections to the fashion industry. A great story with a happy ending: collection after collection of timeless inspiring designs. Visit: costellotagliapietra.com
