A considered selection of designer clothing presented alongside ancient and contemporary art, challenging the distinction between art, craft, and design, between gallery and boutique.
Rick Owens around the reflecting pool, Comme des Garçons in cloudlike crowns, Ann Demeulemeester at the Palais-Royal, an evening with Cortana, and what we brought home to Santa Fe.
On Sunday evening in Paris, Cortana gathered a crowd on the Quai de Valmy for something closer to a happening than a presentation. Dancers, live piano, projections, and Mallorcan cooking by Maria Solivellas of Ca Na Toneta.
There are runway shows that present clothes, and there are runway shows that construct a world around them. Notes from the Ann Demeulemeester Spring/Summer 2027 show at the Réfectoire des Cordeliers in Paris.
