BACK IN TIME: LADY GAGA WEARS HELLEN VAN REES

On September 23rd, 2012 Lady Gaga took some time off of her busy schedule for a interview with Europe 1′s Nikos Aliagas to talk about her perfume “FAME”. Check out her interesting outfit below!

Gaga was wearing a spectacular wearable sculpture from Hellen van Rees’ Fall/Winter 2012 “Square One: The Miracle of the Space Age” collection, inspired by the tweed fabrics used by Chanel, the straight silhouette of 1920′s flapper girls and 3-dimensional artworks by Anish Kapoor and Rachel Whitebread.

All the pieces from this sustainable collection are handmade from recycled yarns handwoven one by one directly into the shape of the architectural three-dimensional garment that, including the cubes, is totally seamless. The yarns, in shades ranging from white to black with a touch of silver, as well as the base textile, are production factory remnants or old fabrics and scraps taken apart.

After her BA Fashion Design studies at the ArtEZ Institute of the Arts in Arnhem, Hellen moved to London where she graduated from the MA Fashion at Central Saint Martins. Visit Hellen van Rees for more!

Her oh-so-fabulous sky-high black leather platform ankle boots with golden sculptural claw double heels are bespoke Giuseppe Zanotti.

Can Luxury be Sustainable? Designer Hellen Van Rees Weighs In

Not Just a Label is one of our favorite e-commerce sites as well as newsletters we receive. Today we cast a thoughtful eye to designer Hellen Van Rees who says of luxury and sustainability:

"Logically, I think it makes complete sense that luxury is sustainable, but apparently it is not. I think that a garment should be beautiful on the outside, but also the story behind it. I don’t understand why shops or customers want to spend a lot of money on pieces that are made in bad circumstances. At the same time I think designers have to take up the initiative and responsibility as well.
