Visionaire, 2001

In 33 TOUCH, artist and longtime Visionaire contributor François Berthoud interprets twenty of our favorite new looks from the fall/winter 2000-2001 collections, which were all about excess and sensory overload. Flocking, foil stamping, sculpt-embossing, and honeycomb extension give the feeling in print of fur over metallic lace over sequins over a dress with leather appliques over patterned stockings. Our collaborator Fendi’s tactile ready-to-wear collection that season was a key source of inspiration. The unbound illustrations were wrapped in a wearable pony-skin cache-col and housed in a brushed-gold metal box. Highlights include designs by John Galliano, Alexander McQueen, Viktor and Rolf, Junya Watanabe, and Helmut Lang.
