The thinking mans Dolce and Gabbana

Dutch fashion duo Viktor and Rolf are currently showing off their gear at the Barbican in a display that would give Stace's stall in the square a run for it's money. The collection is housed is a massive Doll's house.  All the dolls exact mini-me of the models who originally wore the clothes on the catwalk down to the over-sized heads due to not eating.

The whole exhibition has a very alice in wonderland vibe which would have Gwen Stefani drooling all over her Harajuku girls, but what I was really impressed with was the thinking behind all the ranges. They must spend hours toiling away on their PowerbooksTM in their minimal studio apartment in an old windmill, wearing there clever (dutch) clogs .
