Christian Lacroix

The National Museum of Singapore has a couple of exhibitions on at the moment. We went to see the Christian Lacroix collection of theater, mainly opera, costumes. Just a little bit over the top. His concept sketches are displayed along side the finished works. Loved those.

And for something completely different....furniture. From the exhibition blurb..."As a child, Danish designer and architect Verner Panton (1926–1998) had always dreamt of a large room full of colourful cushions. His designs reveal that love for bold colours and his preference for spatial harmony and comfort." And did he do just that! Eat your heart out IKEA. Like our Penang flat, red is the new black!!!
