Are you an animal lover?

Wednesday, February 9, 2011
Actually, animal designs printed on dresses are a little outdated since the models of Miu Miu wore them on catwalk last summer season.  Too dumpy and too obvious were all replications since then.

Now, Opening Ceremony teamed up with Deyrolle, a Parisian store which exhibits mounted animals.But what has our New Yorker fav to do with dead wildcats or birds? To me, their collaboration is a successful extension of Opening Ceremony's collection.























At first sight, I thought that working with a taxidermist is pretty macabre. But I have to admit that the collection turned out to be a real eyecatcher. Not least because it has nothing to do with dead animals. There are just simple dresses with animal prints.





















PS: On openingceremony.com you can find a short "making of".


                                 

So, what do you think about these animalistic looks?
