the bless way of life

September 29, 2008 8:28 am

Most designers on the Paris fashion week schedule wouldn’t opt to serve their guests beer and pretzels in a courtyard and ask a group of friends to pose motionless in a stairwell modeling the collection. Then again, Ines Kaag and Desiree Heiss of Bless aren’t exactly the Paris fashion week norm. From the stellar metal fringe sunglasses (we’re predicting lots of exposure in upcoming magazine spreads) and the leather ankle-tie sandals for guys and girls to bright red netted anoraks and even a set of bed sheets imprinted with an image of a lake, unpredictability was the order of the day. Also included in the Sunday-night presentation were updated product reeditions, among them bejeweled cable coverings, mixed-material necklaces, and chair coverings. All of which reinforced the idea that Bless isn’t so much about a theme for each season as it is a way of life.
