Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Six years ago in rural France, Koto Bolofo uncovered a trove of vintage linen sheets, originating from hospitals, convents, and the homes of both peasants and aristocrats. To Bolofo, these sheets represented the dreams and forgotten stories of their previous owners, inspiring him to craft unique handmade garments from them. The creations were both simple and sophisticated, accompanied by striking photographs, but ultimately remained stored away in a trunk. Bolofo later began working with the renowned women’s fashion and homeware brand Anthropologie. In 2010, the company inquired if he had a personal project in mind, prompting him to revisit his cherished garments. This collaboration led to the commercial production of his collection, set to debut at New York Fashion Week in spring 2012 and sold exclusively in Anthropologie stores. Koto Bolofo, born in South Africa in 1959 and raised in Great Britain, has an impressive portfolio, having photographed and created short films for prestigious magazines like Vogue, Vanity Fair, and GQ. He has also developed advertising campaigns for luxury brands such as Hermès, Louis Vuitton, and Dom Pérignon. Currently residing in the Vendée region of France, Bolofo has published several books with Steidl, including titles like Venus and La Maison.
