Have a look at these dresses by the Brazilian Artist Adriana Bertini…

All the projects and products by the french collective 5.5 Designers are so smart and ironic but never unfunctional… and this is why I like them so much that it has been really difficult to me to choose just some images…
They are working with big-name makers (Salviati, Arc, Oze, Bernardaud, Galeries Lafayette…), and at the same time they remain determined to continue proposing consumer alternatives…
