Styling Styling The Human+ styling story for Summer 2013 is underpinned by a retro mash-up influenced by the highly anticipated Metropolitan Museum of Art exhibition, Impossible Conversations, opening in New York later this spring that juxtaposes the Surrealist inspiration of Elsa Schiaparelli with the Postmodern background of Miuccia Prada. Challenging the boundaries of good and bad taste, it plays on an ironic twist of bad style with oversized shapes, layered statement prints and eye-catching accessories. Meanwhile, the forthcoming London 2012 Olympic Games provoke a prevailing sports-inspired fashion aesthetic, which will continue to resonate with the young, urban Human+ crowd.

Pared-down, shell-like shapes are manufactured with heightened precision and intricacy using new technologies in the production of garments. Moulded, seamless techniques promoted by Rapid Prototype technology evolves and takes on a futuristic look with retro/nostalgic elements. The alternative of this direction sees a more playful twist, with random colour blocking, panelling and patching influenced by artists that developed the aesthetics of Pop Art.

Bold and dynamic Human+ styling presents an element of performance sports-inspired looks, where details become dominant and expressive. Otherworldly architecture and sculptural works influence fastenings, necklines and seaming details, creating futuristic menswear items with a high-precision finish.

La Gaîté Lyrique and the Gautrand Effect
La Gaîté Lyrique and the Gautrand Effect La Gaîté Lyrique La Gaîté Lyrique is much more than just Paris’ new municipal arts centre. Part showcase, part laboratory it’s an interactive sensorial wonderland – transformed from its original guise by visionary architect Manuelle Gautrand into a homage to all things digital, including art, film, graphics, gaming music and dance.

Launched in March, La Gaîté Lyrique is a huge – 13,000 sq m, 1,400 capacity – space, uniquely devoted to exploring the diverse profusion of digital technologies impacting on visual culture. It has been in the planning for some time and Paris’ mayor Bertrand Delanoë has been a major supporter of the project, which combines education, experimentation and entertainment, since taking up his position in 2001.

“The digital arts are a genuine and developed art form, a reality that we want to showcase by devoting this unique venue to them in the heart of Paris,” states Delanoë. “It’s a form of expression which should be experienced through its multiple dimensions, from design to cinema, from music to live performance.”
