MARCAS INSPIRADORAS - IRIS VAN HERPEN

"Normal rules don´t apply… "

O trabalho de Iris Van Herpen caracteriza-se pela relação entre o artesanato e a inovação a nível técnico e de materiais.

Esta cria uma visão moderna da Alta Costura onde põe em contradição a beleza juntamente com a regeneração, uma forma única de se expressar e demarcar a sua individualidade .

Pretende expressar o carácter e as emoções femininas conjugando-as com a forma do corpo feminino em detalhe.

Conseguimos perceber melhor o seu trabalho, o que esta pensa e o que pretende transmitir ao ler a citação que vêm a seguir.

“For me fashion is an expression of art that is very close related to me and to my body.

I see it as my expression of identity combined with desire, moods and cultural setting.

In all my work I try to make clear that fashion is an artistic expression, showing and wearing art, and not just a functional and devoid of content or commercial tool. With my work I intend to show that fashion can certainly have an added value to the world, that it can be timeless and that its consumption can be less important then its beginning. Wearing clothing creates an exciting and imperative form of self-expression. 'Form follows function' is not a slogan with which I concur. On the contrary, I find that forms complement and change the body and thus the emotion. Movement, so essential to and in the body, is just as important in my work. By bringing form, structure and materials together in a new manner, I try to suggest and realize optimal tension and movement.”
