‘Mat, SatinĂ©, Brillant’

As a flu bug stuck in the house I couldn't help but wish I could morph it into a clinical white heaven, similar to the likes of the Maison Martin Margiela exhibition that happen back in april in Millan/the original in Paris. Its introduces his concepts of interior design through the instillation 'Mat, Satine, Brillant' . Its a exact reproduction of the b-e-a-utiful interior design workshop in the Paris head quarters. Where all the magic happens. I'm feeling a bit drowsy so the length of detail in this post is limited, I'm just fantasying about my heros 'pad' and how I'm so so sure I'd feel on top of the world if I could be dropped in there. Pretty amazing to be able to just double a place, one in Paris, one in Millan (bring it to my living room?). Its interesting to see how and where the genius works I LOVE HIMMMM. It has a similar feeling/mood to my ma and step pops works, the whole family are big fans of his, (but not in a creepy way)... the old but new thing, dirty but clean, worn to the bone but pristine. I'm blabbing... all I know is I have a head ache and I'm sure I wouldn't if I was there. Someone?!?! Private jet you wana lend me?? Time Machine too??

Sorry I disappeared, I took a page from Alice's book. I love Colleen Atwood

Hello everyone. I've been completely engrossed in the rumors about Tim Burtons Alice In Wonderland ever since they stared, so yesterday when I saw the trailer I was like wtf!!! Youtube that shiz (link), its soooo exciting. And as often, the legend costume designer Colleen Atwood has been on the case. Dressing Johnny Depp!?!?! YES PLEASE!!! She does go hand in hand with the whole Tim Burton, Helena Bonham Carter and Johnny Depp trio, and does a ammmmazing job. Alice is a actress I admit I haven't really heard of.... Mia Wasikowska?!! Needless to say we all will as soon as this babies out of the bag. Any whoo go Collen Atwood for yet nailing another, it ill no doubt add to the endless awards and nominations up her (I'm sure beautiful) sleeves. Anyway, its not out till March 2010 so we have a bit of a wait : (  heres some piccys. I'de love to be in ANY of their shoes x x
