Gwendolyn Huskens is a student at the Design Academy in Eindhoven, The Netherlands. She studies in the department of man and identity. Her project Medic Esthetic is about the beauty of imperfection. She used medical materials like synthetic plaster, bandages and stainless steel in white and skin tones, to make these shoes. The esthetics is superior to the wearability.

Is it the composition or the colors or the legs … I just had to post this photo. It part of the campaign for Scholl - Diego Dolcini, photographed by MI-ZO.
‘The Way Things Go‘ is a film by Peter Fischli & David Weiss, an artists duo from Switzerland. It’s a 30 minutes chain reaction video made in 1987, and definitely worth watching. I can also recommend the video work by Roman Signer.
And as a little extra, this piece called ‘Masturbine’ by the same artists, part of their Équilibres.
I always thought that Louis Vuitton was a brand with brown stuff for old, rich ladies. I guess I was wrong. Bring on spring summer 2008, I want to see girls with these outfits. More at Iconique.
On with todays theme on seduction. Style.com did a video interview with Christian Louboutin, a famous womens shoe designer. This quote just says it all, he stays true to his design principle.
I wanted to do shoes that were purely for seduction, for pleasure, for sex. That’s it. A shoe that you cannot run, you cannot even walk. If you want to run in these shoes, buy sneakers.
With all this earth hype going on lately, I thought I should jump on the bandwagon. So here are some ‘High Tide Heels’ for you girls out there, go get them now, you might need them sooner than later.
So here’s an other “stiletto sneaker”, this time it’s actually only the socks mixed with some Louboutins. For the sneakerheads: pigeon dunk, Jeff Staple, Reed Space … run!
Again a pair of stilettos by Pierre Hardy. These just look monstrous! He designed these for Balenciaga.
