Alexis Mabille haute couture 2010 |
Young French designer Alexis Mabille said his new Spring/Summer collection was inspired by Russian painter Kazimr Malevich. He said the artistic movement, known as "Suprematism", stresses basic geometric shapes, using a sparse range of color.
Alexis Mabille, designer, said, "The inspirations were Malevich and Suprematism, this idea of leaving the body, or going into it, with structures, a couple, more graphic, and working on that, working with the female body to add volume. It's like a kind of surgery, you go in and add contrasting colors to enhance it."
Malevich aimed to convey the "supremacy of feeling in art," expressed through the simplest of visual forms. Mabille said he wants to convey the supremacy of beauty in the women wearing his clothes.
