I went to Royal Ontario of Museum yesterday to see the Viktor&Rolf exhibit. It was free of charge and I was recommended to check it out by my Program Coordinator. The exhibit was smaller than I expected it to be. There were 31 dolls on the runway and some of them looked familiar because I have seen some of the designs in the previous Viktor&Rolf collections on actual models.
The colour of the wall was definitely Victorian themed and I saw lots of toned down colours as well as bright reds, oranges and pinks. Every doll was exquisite with makeup that matched their designs.
This doll's hair reminded me of an Asian doll. I would like to name this doll, "Eastern Flowerbomb".
Loréal Paris was one of the sponsors of this exhibit and
they used the main colour of the dress, red, as the makeup look.
This doll looks like a combination work of a witch and a bee. The dark Gothic makeup look with dark hands resemble a witch and pointy back resemble a bee's stinger.
This coat is something that I would like to recreate. I love this polished look and contrast of black and white.
A mixture of very formal and casual look. Light denim with a dress shirt and a coat makes the whole outfit interesting.
This lady is in a suit makes me think that Viktor&Rolf might have desired to express women empowerment. There is an emphasis on the shoulders and the hair covered in the white shirt which makes it look like she is trying to hide her long hair to show the initiative for women empowerment.
I was inspired by the details that Viktor&Rolf put in in every doll. Different poses, makeup looks, and accessories all tie in together and created this exhibit.
