ART X FASHION?

A lot of people bang on about the way fashion and art are inextricably linked etc. For the most part I'm inclined to consider them as two separate entities but I was pleasantly surprised by these dresses. Made by Mother of Pearl in collaboration with artist John Currin, these dresses are the most literal collaboration and are a great success for it. 

I like to think my tshirt is along the same lines.

FREUD'S ZEBRAS

I went to see Lucian Freud portraits at the National Portrait Gallery this monday and I couldn't recommend it more highly. They have 500 tickets on the door each day so if you're not organised with booking (like me) you have no excuse.

Apart from all the fantastic portraits, at the end I was rifling through books and found these two images which are just brilliant. What I would do for my own taxidermy zebra.
