Why do you need clothes that cannot be worn, especially if these clothes belong to a well-known brand and cost a lot of money? But it is precisely these models that the famous company LACOSTE ordered from a Chinese artist named Li Xiaofeng to present them at the 2010 Holiday Collector’s Series.
Li Xiaofeng's art outfits are garments made from hand-painted and then broken porcelain cups, plates and saucers. Polo shirt, shirt, suit, dress - all this the author carefully assembled piece by piece, like a puzzle, fastening it with a wire and then putting it on a mannequin.
If desired, the artist's works can be called sculptures or installations, but LACOSTE intends to use the resulting colored ornaments in order to later get a fabric with the same pattern and implement an art project in the near future.
