Mon–Sat 10–6 t 0114 285 2665 karen@cupolagallery.com I cupolacontemporaryart t @cupolagallery f cupolacontemporaryart www.cupolagallery.com One could surmise that master couturier Azzedine Alaïa was driven as much by the art as the fashion when he entered the clothing industry. The Tunisian- born, fine art school educated designer defied conventional seasonal collections, preferring to work and develop a theme, sometimes for years, remaining focused on his vision rather than market trends. Ideas were formed by draping, cutting and sculpting fabric directly to the model – parallels perhaps to Rodin and his ‘Monument to Balzac’ where the figure was created first followed by the elaborate draped cloak. Alaïa was working on the current exhibition at the Design Museum when he died last year – in what has turned out to be a retrospective of 60 examples of his craft from the past 35 years – displayed, appropriately, in ranks of classical doric-like figures.
