I wish I lived in England so I could see them as well.<br />It is a rather limited amount of exhibitions we have here in Denmark, because we are such a small country.oklyoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15670263024546309520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419544468759273678.post-42879231236227093012014-06-18T17:52:43.706+01:002014-06-18T17:52:43.706+01:00If you'd asked me before reading the post I...If you'd asked me before reading the post I'd have said I wasn't that bothered about JPG - a bit too far 'out there' for me but I have a reformed opinion as these show such skill in design and construction. Really enjoyed the virtual trip and would love to see you in that straw corset in Sainsburys! It would spice up the weekly shop!LAC EMP 2020https://www.blogger.com/profile/01999825212820503519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419544468759273678.post-3904938378585938182014-06-17T00:27:29.425+01:002014-06-17T00:27:29.425+01:00Thanks for sharing - they look like fabulous exhib...Thanks for sharing - they look like fabulous exhibitions and I wish I could get to them.

I am so happy to see your photographs and text, and also to read the prior comments.<br /><br />Gaultier is quite a creative force. Grand to see that the exhibit catches that...right down to the mannequins' faces.<br /><br />What textile skills in both shows. I know that your creative head must be finding ways to absorb what you've just seen, and thinking about how to take all that forward.<br /><br />Let's hope that sometime...hoping it's later on this year, we will be able to see such a show together.<br /><br />Meanwhile, thank you so much for this post. xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419544468759273678.post-64327926434384838462014-06-15T21:38:10.830+01:002014-06-15T21:38:10.830+01:00The straw corset does it for me.........

I've always been fascinated by the theatrics of fashion and the intricate skills involved in the construction and ornamentation of these clothes. Fabulous. Absolutely fabulous.<br /><br />It's funny how my mother, who is a passionate artist, has never understood the point of catwalk fashion designs. So impractical, she mutters, to which I respond, I know, isn't it wonderful?<br /><br />Stephaniemillefeuilleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14608950213999238191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419544468759273678.post-88684548020467449292014-06-15T10:31:48.595+01:002014-06-15T10:31:48.595+01:00Thankyou for sharing some of your wonderful photos...Thankyou for sharing some of your wonderful photos Gina. I particularly like the beaded denim coat and the knitted dress, but all garments look exquisitely made. A stroll round Sainsbury's in the Madonna corset gets my vote! The exhibition of Mexican work is such a contrast but no less eyecatching. A feast of colour and pattern.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826501916623305535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419544468759273678.post-83099838726464212902014-06-15T10:04:55.294+01:002014-06-15T10:04:55.294+01:00that looks well worth a visit Gina. some fascinat...that looks well worth a visit Gina. some fascinating textile work there.Carol Qhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02764184430436142517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419544468759273678.post-73288706786378842352014-06-15T09:36:22.345+01:002014-06-15T09:36:22.345+01:00I can see you in that long knitted number - or the...I can see you in that long knitted number - or the denim one... easily !Jodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02924653077212971448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419544468759273678.post-71747164235596345752014-06-15T09:35:14.261+01:002014-06-15T09:35:14.261+01:00Wonderful, they both look amazing exhibitions!
