Lola Loves.. Mike Parisella’s Otherworldly Mixed Media Collages

Slip into a world of optical illusion, folded fluorescence and unexpected juxtaposition with the otherworldly mixed media collages of Boston-based artist Mike Parisella. At times a psycho-nautical excursion to outer space and at others an intimate look at female beauty, @slimesunday is an artistic experiment with the world of cinema 4d, pixel sorting and data bending. Mike’s work is an…

Zadig & Voltaire SS16 — Rock n’ Roll Meets Boho

True to their rock n' roll and bohemian way of life, the Zadig & Voltaire SS16 collection combines edgy looking pieces—think oversized metal eagle belt buckle and black leather overalls—and soft sheer blouses with girly details. The collection also includes cotton dresses, a fringed suede jacket, black and white cowboy booties and an amazing peach star-spangled suit. The campaign images,…

Lola Loves… Carolina Amorim’s Coloured Thread

Daggers, lasers, or maybe just a steely glare. All things that can be shot from one's eyes. Figuratively, of course... unless you're a superhero. Artist Carolina Amorim traces the gaze of her models with coloured thread. Some travel in straight lines, others in geometric shapes. A daydream, perhaps? Lost in thought? There are no vacant stares here. In any case,…

Berlin Fashion Week SS16: Runway and Backstage Photos

Dazzled by the colours and contours of Ayala’'s new collection, which flowed from the girls with such fluidity and grace that each subtle movement was mesmerising. Varon’s morbid futurism pulled attention too, the beauty of which was supplemented by a passionate description of the unfathomably precise nature of their production delivered by Varon himself. Photographs of this work can be…

Our 10 Favourite Songs from Alan Vega and Suicide

"Suicide was never supposed to be entertainment," said Alan Vega. The proto-punk pioneer and frontman of Suicide, has died last Saturday at his home at the age of 78. The New York duo, comprised of Vega and Martin Rev, were among the first to describe themselves and their dissonant sound as punk. Unsettling and unpolished, Suicide made minimal and stripped…

Photography: Kimber Beck’s Self-Portraits

The photography of 25-year-old Kimber Beck takes the form of self-portraits with a retro feel. Her work might be better described as body portraits that explore intimacy with the body of the self, and with the bodies of other women. Captured in whole or in part, female bodies are often found in surreal contexts and contortions. Intimate and dreamy, the subjects of her pieces are often faceless and unclothed—or wearing only underwear.

Lola Loves… Javier Piñón’s Hypnotizing Collages of Medusa

Legend has it that Medusa had a terrifying face and snakes for hair. If that wasn't enough, anyone who looked at her would turn to stone, which probably makes for a lonely existence, one where the joys of eye contact, say nothing of sharing a sidelong glance with a co-conspirator, would never be known. Perhaps artist Javier Piñón sympathized with her…

Alexander Wang SS/16 Collection Is All About His Squad

Alexander Wang has a Wang Squad. No, seriously, they even have an Instagram account (@wangsquad) of tall, beautiful and impossibly aspirational it-girls such as Lexi Boling, Anna Ewers, Binx Walton and, lately, Kaia Gerber (Cindy Crawford’s mini-me daughter). So, unsurprisingly, the Alexander Wang SS/16 collection isn’t about the clothes, it’s about his squad. This collection is pure street style and—just…
