"In the spirit of Lee Alexander McQueen, contributors including Nick Knight, Steven Klein, Mario Sorrenti, Steven Meisel, Inez Van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin, David Sims, Mario Testino, Sean Ellis and Sebastian Faena, share images inspired by his unbridled creativity. The collection of images is printed on paper embedded with wildflower seeds. When planted, watered & given sun, the pages blossom.

Inspiration: Artist Kenneth Anger's Mouse Heaven

The experimental work of iconic video artist Kenneth Anger has always been great inspiration & a starting point for many designers & artists, including most recently, Valentino's fab design duo Pier Paolo Piccioli & Maria Grazia Chiuri. The pair cited Anger as inspiration for their Fall 2010 outing and featured the artist's videos as backdrops for the house's runway presentation with Anger watching from the front row himself. Above is 2004's Mouse Heaven with an "all toy" cast based on Walt Disney's fabled characters.
