Description
ARMAN (1928–2005)
“Melting Pot”, 1999
Evening gown and stole by Couture Helenbeck, with painting
One-off piece
Created for the “Modern Art Couture” fashion show on 10 December 1999 at the Ferrero Gallery in Nice, based on a novel concept explained by Ben: “A painting isn’t necessarily something you hang on the wall; you can also wear it.” The painting becomes wearable.
In 2000, a second Helenbeck Haute Couture fashion show took place at Jimmy’s in Monte Carlo in partnership with Ferrari.
