RoBE GoNfLABLE<br />

Un des témoins du fabuleux défilé de la<br />

collection printemps-été 1999 de Yohji<br />

Yamamoto. Histoires de mariées heureuses,<br />

tristes, rebelles ou de veuves joyeuses…<br />

Cette robe en textile vinyle gonflable est<br />

un vêtement hybride, entre architecture<br />

et tenue de soirée, sur lequel s’impriment<br />

avec humour les influences d’une tradition<br />

japonaise revisitée.<br />

INfLATABLE DRESS<br />

One of the witnesses of Yohji Yamamoto’s<br />

fabulous spring-summer collection show in<br />

1999. Stories of happy, sad, or defiant brides<br />

and merry widows... This inflatable, vinyl<br />

textile dress is a hybrid of architecture and<br />

evening wear, upon which the designer<br />

humorously imprints influences of a<br />

revisited Japanese tradition.<br />

fIL DE L’ANGE<br />

Créé spécialement pour lille3000 et<br />

Futurotextiles, un manteau tout en plumes,<br />

ébarbées, entrecroisées jusqu’à former un<br />

tissu presque immatériel. Aérien, flottant.<br />

Une référence explicite à l’ange joué par<br />

Bruno Ganz dans le film de Wim Wenders,<br />

Les Ailes du Désir : un personnage portant<br />

pardessus et grandes ailes blanches,<br />

oscillant entre sa condition céleste et<br />

l’insoutenable envie de s’incarner, c’est-àdire<br />

de s’humaniser.<br />

ANGEL ThREAD<br />

Created especially for lille3000 and<br />

Futurotextiles, a coat made entirely of<br />

feathers, trimmed and crisscrossed to form<br />

an almost immaterial fabric. Ethereal and<br />

floating. An explicit reference to the angel<br />

played by Bruno Ganz in Wim Wenders’<br />

film, Wings of Desire: a character wearing<br />

an overcoat with large white wings, caught<br />

between his heavenly condition and the<br />

unbearable urge to be incarnated, that is to<br />

say to become human.<br />
