Rick Owens, though better known for his clothing design, is in fact an accomplished furniture designer whose ideas about couture run counter to the approaches taken by Riccardo Tisci for Givenchy Couture. “The furniture is the couture. I don’t believe in clothes that take 5000 hours of embroidery that you wear once to a gala,” Owens explained in a video portrait by Danielle Levitt for AnOther Magazine. ”The furniture is the same idea, the same principle. It’s labor intensive, rare, it’s something that is kind of stationary and a little bit eternal. I like that as the idea for couture more.” Owens’s furniture exhibition “Magic Mountain” at the Chesa Planta Museum in St. Moritz will show through the end of February. [YouTube]
