Duran Lantink Duran Lantink\u2019s Old Stock Collection: Look 3 (Purple Vagina Face)<\/em> is a reference to the trousers he designed for Janelle Mon\u00e1e\u2019s music video \u201cPYNK\u201d. Lantink\u2019s outfit for \u201cPYNK\u201d \u2013 its shape, textures and functionality in scenographic and sartorial terms \u2013 was a representation of the vulva, and contributed, along with the song\u2019s lyrics (written in collaboration with punk artist Grimes), the choreography and iconography of its video, and the prevalence of the colour pink, in turning \u201cPYNK\u201d into a celebration of female empowerment and sexuality. With its cast being made up entirely of black and other non-white women Mon\u00e1e\u2019s video is a direct response to the \u201880s and \u201890s hip-hop scene where women appeared purely as accessories to the artist as well as to President\u2019s Tramp sexist politics and rhetoric.<\/p>\n For the outfit featured in \u201cModern Love or Love at the age of Cold Intimacies\u201d Lantink retains the rudimentary shape of a pair of trousers and moves the vulva to the position of the face, while he uses scraps of old clothing to construct a mannequin. Second-hand clothes preserve the memories of bodies and, just like in Mon\u00e1e\u2019s video, the outfit becomes a metonymy for the woman who wears it. Lantink assembles his outfits from existing garments, mostly vintage designer items, which he sources directly from charity shops and fashion houses. Lantink\u2019s zero-waste philosophy is a radically different approach to the current fashion system and an appeal to make it structurally sustainable.<\/p>\n Biography<\/p>\n Duran Lantink is a Dutch designer based in Amsterdam. Having studied at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie and the Sandberg Instituut \u2014 graduating from the latter in 2017 \u2014 Lantink\u2019s playful, inclusive vision for the future of sustainable fashion has already seen him shortlisted for the 2019 LVMH Prize. After receiving international attention for the iconic \u201cvagina\u201d trousers he created for Janelle Mon\u00e1e\u2019s \u201cPYNK\u201d music video in 2018, Lantink has gone on to design pieces for the likes of Billie Eilish and Solange.<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.duranlantink.com<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Duran Lantink Old Stock Collection: Look 3 (Purple Vagina Face), 2019 Mixed media with silk, satin, tulle From the collection of the Centraal Museum, Utrecht Duran Lantink\u2019s Old Stock Collection: Look 3 (Purple Vagina Face) is a reference to the trousers he designed for Janelle Mon\u00e1e\u2019s music video \u201cPYNK\u201d.
