The second exhibition I went to was the Azzedine Alaïa Exhibition entitled "The Couturier". It was at the design museum. I have never been to its new location, and frankly it was pretty amazing. The whole exhibition was fabulous. The atmosphere as you walk in the room pulls you in and grabs you. Not knowing where to look first trying desperately to take it all in. It was laid and spaced out beautifully. Artist designs screens to compliment each collection of dresses. Alaïa has a background in sculpture and this informed his designs with the fabric that clinged and slid across the body. The way he used unconventional fabrics to create this sculpture effect is truly amazing. All of his creations were truly breath taking and most of them you could walk around the whole mannequin allowing to fully take in the amazing craftsmanship. This is were I would normally say which was couple were my favourite but I couldn't say because they were all just gorgeous in there own right. I would say go now because seeing images just don't do it justice!
