Post subject:  more stuff - Polly's clothes

Not sure if anything has been posted about this but this is what I was reading this morning:

"I know that Ann Demeulemeester isn't into promoting who wears her clothing but as a huge P J Harvey fan, I was super excited when I heard that Demeulemeester is doing the clothing for Polly's new album and forthcoming tour (including her band).

Polly was recently on the Andrew Marr for an interview and performance and she was wearing head to toe Ann, including some of the new feather pieces."


"....since Ann Demeulemeester has used P J Harvey's music on her runway and as inspiration... "

"The first time I had a real conversation with Polly (in '95) it was about Ann Demeulemeester. Specifically, the "banana" heel boot and leather coats. I'm so excited about seeing what Polly and her band are going to look like on stage dressed in Demeulemeester."

"Ann Demeulemeester FW0809 soundtrack:: a mix of various PJ Harvey songs. Haunting and dramatic but sombre"

now I want to know specifically which songs LOL (even though I'm sure they're all things we already have..)

Ann Demeulemeester has often been inspired by musicians. One of her muses has always been Patti Smith, she even made a collection with "Holy" pieces..piece of clothing with the word "Holy" on them, based on the song "Spell" from Smith. Patti Smith also was a model for Ann in one of her men's shows.
Funny how interesting people always seem to find eachother. Lovely.

I completely agree! I love a woman in mens clothing, or more androgynous clothes.

Love the connection to Patti, hope it doesn't open THAT can of worms again though (or am I being paranoid)

edit: Lots more shots of the new collection here Think I'm going to like the new look. Wonder if the "Straight Jacket" dress was hers?

like most catwalk shows, there's some elements I'd wear, and some that belong solely as a part of the 'show'

That reminds me of another great artist once dressed by Ann Demeulemeester: Diamanda Galas.
I attended the opening night of her songcycle "Defixiones" in Ghent, Belgium. She was wearing a stunning black (of course) dress by Ann.
I once read that Harvey is an admirer of Diamanda, especially around TBYML.
