AFSHIN FEIZ
fall/winter 2005/6

the butterfly catcher

Inspired by the 13th century Persian poet, Rumi, Afshin Feiz references to butterflies and candles; synonyms for lovers and their beloved. The designer pictures an Englishman in his tweeds (wool as the catcher) chasing butterflies (velvet - the butterfly) with a net, portraying the image of the lover continuing on his quest for love which was abundant not only through his large use of the color red. next>>>
