Oh My God. My one of most favorite designer, Iris van Herpen, is holding an exhibition in Groninger Museum, and it's just TEN DAYS LEFT!!

Aren't they INCREDIBLE??? Iris is ALWAYS thinking out of box (if there's any in her mind). Using unusual (for usual designers) material, concept, and process, Iris always comes up with quirky, unique, visionair creations. Some people call her the female version of late Alexander McQueen, but there's something that she did immaculately, pushing boundaries further than anyone ever did. She's so passionate, and I've seen an interview with her, she's so humble. I wanna meet her someday. It's gonna be fun, I believe.
The exhibition, as I mentioned before, will be presented until September 23. A selection of her most recent work, such as Capriole and the Micro collection that is to be shown in January 2012, will also be on display.
The museum is here.
