We've adored the paintings of
Giuseppe Arcimboldo ever since we first saw them; at first glance, layers of fruits, vegetables, the
rogue fluke...and then...a portrait of a man. A surrealist take on the man vs. feast.
Which explains why we were so delighted to see the
Salad Days feature in the
New York Times Magazine curated in anticipation of the
"Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations" show at the Met. "Dresses" featured alongside some of our favorite designers - made out of an abundance of fresh ingredients:
|
Veggie Couture - Dolce & Gabbana |
|
Pasta Party - Donna Karan |
|
Catch of the Day: Armani |
|
Shrimp Cocktail - McQueen |
|
Pour Some Sugar on Me - Pucci and Viktor & Rolf |
