Backstage Ann Demeulemeester SS 2010













"We all have a responsibility in life to try to be happy" Ann D.



I just returned from a quick visit to Paris for the Demeulemeester womens show. As always, her collection was beautiful. Lots of leather, zipper chains, black and white, and bird prints.
The inspiration for this season came from the idea that we should all try to be free, to keep dreaming. Birds breaking free from a cage. The music was very positive, she had chosen a rare Bruce Springsteen recording of a live cover of Suicides' "dream baby dream" . It was interesting that the only two boys that were in the show were the only ones not wearing a chain mask. At first glance the collection might seem hard, but at a closer look it shows a great fragility, which I think Ann always finds important. Her collections always comes from an emotional point of view. Good thing to remember in life; don't stop dreaming, and don't stop striving for the better.
Check out the whole collection on Style.

Yes, her collection was quite lovely, though the faces mask-things were a tad...odd?

Kinda liked the hair and face-styling, makes the faces themselves seem so soft.

Ann Demeulemeester, wow congratulations! I love the idea behind the collection, I don't know if she communicated it to me though... well anyhow, I do agree that we SHOULD do our best to be happy!

So cool. The past year of my life has been a journey for me to start looking up, seeing myself differently, understanding life differently. I don't think I'll ever be the same again.
