SUMMER TEASER ' BEST BEFORE '
'BEST BEFORE'
Hansen & Gretel translates the conversion of abstract ideas into unique and ready-to-wear pieces. Its key fundamentals expand from the importance placed on quality, design and value.
Best Before is a debut capsule collection inspired by the style classics, stirred by the projections of high fashion and educated by the
personality of street trends. The brand’s strength originates in the creator’s talent for merging the worlds of art and style, thus creating a street-chic collection with a dash of avant-garde appeal. Produced with an innovative approach to design wearability Hansen & Gretel will always uphold relevance to season.

I recently came across this incredible artist Matthias Heiderich who is a self-taught photographer currently living and working in Berlin, where his images have been exhibited widely. Following his studies in linguistics and phonetics, he completed a Master of Arts from Trinity College, Dublin, in 2007.

PAUL WINSTANLEY
A selection of photorealistic paintings by Paul Winstanley
Paul Winstanley paints from photographs, generally ones he has taken himself. It is during the process of transcription from two dimensional photographic surface into paint that the final picture emerges and he often departs from the photographic record to emphasise a detail or mood.

DIVING FOR McQUEEN
NOWNESS PRESENTS!
Fashion Critic Cathy Horyn Enters the Folds of Sarah Burton's Spring 2012 McQueen Collection
The New York Times fashion critic Cathy Horyn meets Alexander McQueen Creative Director Sarah Burton at the label’s Paris atelier to explore the house’s intricate, marine-inspired Spring/Summer 2012 collection in Dustin Lynn’s
stunning portrait film.
Displaying a love and knowledge of fashion far beyond the catwalk, Horyn’s notorious studio visits define her style as a journalist, producing lyrical portraits of designers truly dedicated to the rigor of cutting and creating clothes. Before becoming head of the fashion house, Burton worked as McQueen’s right hand for 14 years. “With Sarah, it has a lot to do with the training she has had at McQueen, and just knowing what the McQueen studio had been like under Lee,” says Horyn of Burton’s qualification for the job.
“It was always a place where it was about the technique and craft.” After the turmoil following McQueen's tragic suicide last year, the provocative label has returned stronger than ever with sumptuously beautiful collections, the record-breaking Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty retrospective at the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute attracting over 650,000 visitors, and Burton designing the Duchess of Cambridge’s much-lauded gown for the royal wedding.
