The book design is based on the show’s main poster, which contains every image in the book. Each page of the book, then, is a zoom-in on the poster. We’ve also designed a series of six billboards, featured throughout the city, that are as much an extension of the exhibition as advertisements for it. Base Partner Dimitri Jeurissen has acted as a creative consultant on the project, working directly with Hannelore on the curation of the show and overseeing the design of all materials.

Presented across three floors, UltraMegaLore brings together thousands of images as well as memorabilia from Hannelore’s personal life. Featured on the first floor are designers Azzedine Alaia, Jean Paul Gaultier, and Haider Ackermann, all of whom were central to Hannelore’s rise. The second floor presents Hannelore through the lenses of photographers Inez Van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin, Juergen Teller, Serge Leblon, Craig McDean, Jean-Baptiste Mondino, and Steven Klein. A mix of materials and media from across Hannelore’s career are displayed on the third floor, an attic, including video footage, mementos, and more.
UltraMegaLore is open at ModeMuseum Hasselt from March 27 through June 6.

The book is a commemorative retrospective of Pierre Cardin through 176 pages and 150 photographies. From his birth in 1922 to his involvement for Dior, to the creation of his own fashion house, this tribute relates Pierre Cardin’s work and life and his contribution to the world of couture and fashion.

The volume is directed by Jean-Pascal Hesse, who holds a degree in history and has been Director of Communications at the Cardin fashion house for close to 15 years.

“Wonderland” is the perfect fantasy for the SS 10 season.   Inspiration flows from the pages of Lewis Carol’s Alice in Wonderland, from the exquisite illustrations of John Tenniel depicting the fantastical world beyond the rabbit hole, and is recast in a modern light as a collection of digitally printed silk scarves.  Each design has been meticulously rendered by hand, and serves as an extension of Coco’s work as a highly coveted fashion illustrator.

The muse finds herself transported in ink into three distinct fantasy worlds, which serve as stages of what must surely be a most marvelous adventure.  In one instant she sits amongst an explosion of oversized lilies and musical notes, which swirl around bending bars of sound.  In another she stands holding a deck of cards, seemingly beckoning us past a grouping of feathers and flamingos to take a closer look.
The third is a boudoir abstraction of whirling timepieces, mechanisms, and upholstery finishings.
Strong geometric shapes and backgrounds serve as a counterpoint to elegant drawings and swirling realities, giving the sublimely feminine illustrations a stronger, modern appeal.   Each scarf design comes in 3 colour ways, in which brighter and more neutral tones are carefully considered and utilized expertly to give each composition a unique appeal.
