Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch. cute; liked Dennis Kyte better Photographer Michel Tcherevkoff noticed that a leaf, the photograph of which he had just taken, looked like a shoe. He manipulated the image and came up with his first "shoe fleur". Inspired, he made more of these fantastic images, now not only of shoes, but of handbags. These images have been gathered into a book, a book which is itself a work of art. Heavy cardboad covers with the image of a shoe on the front and a handbag on the back are attached to a cloth-covered spine which carries the title and author information. The endsheets are a pale green, with a faint leaf design. The title page is faux vellum, with the script "shoe fleur, overlaying an image of that first shoe, called "La Première". The book is enclosed in a pink plastic slipcase with a ruffled edge that meets the image of leaves on the cover and has a circular opening to reveal a variegated tulip that is part of the cover shoe. Interestingly, although these shoes are fantasies, many of the designs, if translated into less delicate, less ephemeral, materials, would be quite wearable. I would certainly be happy to own any of these items! The photos and text are enhanced by a preface written by Ferruccio Ferragamo and an introduction by Diane von Furstenberg. Oh, and the title is delightfully punny! More images can be seen at Tcherevkoff's website. Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Shoe Fleur: A Footwear Fantasy debuts an outrageous imaginary collection of botanical shoes and accessories created by photographer and artist Michel Tcherevkoff. Each virtual shoe and handbag is amazingly crafted out of numerous photographs of a single plant or flower. The result is both organic and cutting edge. Art, attitude, romance, and nature combine in this garden of flirtatious footwear presented here in fashion's latest avant-guarde offering. Bearing witty and whimsical names and captions to compliment their playful design, every shoe and handbag has a story to tell--or a secret to keep. Fashionistas will find everything they need, from the "Pre-Nup," a slipper made from the virginal white lily, to the "Miss Tress," the sole of adult discretion, to the "Tally Ho," a handbag fit for a fox hunt, to the "Frieda Kahlo," a feminine shoe with a sturdy soul--built for the road less traveled. This playful one-of-a-kind collection is packaged in a chic pink plastic slipcase with a round peek-a-boo window, and includes eight printed vellum tip-in sheets. Whether you're shoe obsessed, fashion forward, or flower powered, Shoe Fleur is an irresistable confection that will tease, delight, and perhaps inspire a few fantasies of your own...
