Stunning Azzedine Alaia embroidery at Palais Galliera




After 4 years of renovation, the Palais Galliera has just reopened its doors. For the event the museum has been restored to its original 1895 look, featuring Pompeii red walls and framed with matte black doors. Olivier Saillard, its director, chose to show Azzedine Alaïa’s work here. He considers the couturier to be like the spiritual son of Madame Grès and Cristobal Balenciaga, (who he devoted two outdoor museum exhibitions to).
This flashback of 50 years of design enables us to discover his most significant dresses which he kept away from fashion shows in order to devote himself to inventing a style. A choice which he confirmed in the catalogue’s opening interview: “By opposing the superficial seasons and fashion shows, I’ve been one of the only people daring enough to break this demanding schedule that neglects design in favour of performance (…). To those who say to me ‘Alaïa, we don’t see you in catwalks anymore’ I tell them we do them every day but instead the audience is made up of a single new client or a panel of buyers”

LEATHER SEQUINS : ROCKSTAR OR COUTURE DIVA?

We have always loved leather..... the sheer rock star glamor and rebellious attitude that can be exuded only by leather, is hard to match!!
As a simultaneous couture worshiper, we have tried to find the perfect balance between the gorgeous delicacy of hand embroidery and the sheer attitude of leather..... and voila!!

Have ideas on where you can use these lovelies? Share your creativity with us !!!

SPECIALITY TOOLS FOR EVERY DESIGNER

THE ULTIMATE PINNING MACHINE.
ITS EASY-AS-WINKING TO USE!!!
First draw on a tracing paper or gateway sheet, the design that you wish to translate into embroidery. Then put your tracing paper design(khaka) on a firm thick fabric covered surface.
 Plug in the machine and simply trace it on the design like you would use a pen. The machine will make tiny microscopic pinholes on your design.
Then you can trace the pinned design on any surface you wish to embroider with tracing powder. Good quality tracing powder, as available with the embroiderymaterial.com online shop, will disappear with the minimum fuss after embroidery.
This machine eliminates the need for you to draw right on the surface, makes it easier to make as many exact replications as you require, and makes the entire laborious task a few minutes' hassle-free job!!!
