Alberto Zambelli’s Fall Winter 2014 collection approached futurism with restraint, choosing suggestion over spectacle. Rather than relying on high-gloss fantasy or overt sci-fi references, the collection imagined the future as something already familiar. Worn-in. Referenced. Remembered. It felt less like prediction and more like evolution.

Bondi Hipsters take on Oversexed GQ Photoshoot
Bondi Hipsters explain: “We saw Miranda’s shoot earlier this week,” the pair wrote on Facebook. “Thought we might turn the industry on it’s head… It’s a little different when it’s a mahn, isn’t it?… Sorry bout it.” The Bondi Hipsters describe themselves as “eco-concious, party animal Hipsters from Bondi who are desperate to get their fashion brand off the ground”: Adrian is a rich boy from the Eastern Suburbs, who has been raised in private schools and spoon fed his whole life.

Ant Art Installations by Rafael Gómezbarros
This is equally terrifying as it is oddly amusing. Since 2007, sculptor Rafael Gómezbarros has brought his invasive swarm of giant ants to public buildings of his native Columbia. Titled “Casa Tomada”, (Seized House), the ants represent the displacement of peasants due to war and strife. Spreading aggressively over the colonial façades of government structures, these unstoppable insects have in turn seized the homes of those in power. source:

Feather Crowns
Feather crowns are a delightfully expressive accessory that take the floral halo trend into a new dimension of movement, texture, and personality. Rather than delicate blossoms, feathers introduce a sense of wildness and fluidity that feels both primordial and exquisitely styled. They...

Jessica Ledwich and the Monstrous Feminine
Jessica Ledwich’s work does not ease the viewer in. It confronts directly, unapologetically intense, and deliberately uncomfortable. Her series The Fanciful, Monstrous Feminine operates in a space where beauty rituals are no longer soothing or aspirational, but strange, excessive, and psychologically charged. What is usually marketed as refinement is pushed into distortion, revealing something far more unsettling beneath the surface.

For the Martha Graham Dance Company, the storm resulted in the loss of irreplaceable costumes, sets, and archival materials, objects that carried decades of artistic history.
