All eyes on Tom Ford

Tom Ford has made the news a lot recently, but not about a new line of clothing or eyewear. The former Gucci-designer made a (very succefull) moviemaking debut, expressed his hatred of Yves Saint Laurent and announced that he would never again do a fashion show because he got sick and tired of journalists being responsible for the success of a new line. Now that's all very interesting of course, but let's just focus on the one thing why I love Tom Ford. And that thing is great fashion! Slick clothing design a fantastic eyewear! So just a little reminder for everybody and more is available ofcourse on the website.

Bernhard Willhelm & Jutta Kraus Expo in Groningen

The Groninger Museum in Groningen, The Netherlands will display a fashion exhibition by Berhard Willhelm & Jutta Kraus. The Designers are supported by Zana Bosnjak, a Berlin scenograph, who is art director of the exhibition.

The expo started on december the 13th and will be open to public till april 11th.

The expo contains a selection of 30 collections men & women and it's truly an 'in your face' expo. Maybe a little graphic at times, but an absolute must see if your into fashion and don't mind the drive to the city of Groningen.

The city of Groningen should be named fashion capitol of the Netherlands for consitantly showing fashion expositions and doing it in a new and fresh way!

Earlier the Groninger Museum showed exposition by Victor & Rolf, Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin, Marc Newson, Anuschka Blommers & Niels Schumm en Hussein Chalayan. I support the Groninger Museum in it's daring expositions, not only in fashion, but in every aspect of design & art, and anyone who might ever be within a 200 mile radius of Groningen should definitely go there!
