FAST-FOOD-FERRE



WHEN GIANFRANCO FERRE PASSED AWAY LAST YEAR HIS WORK REALLY STARTED TO COME TO MY ATTENTION. NOW I AM ALWAYS ACTIVELY LOOKING FOR MORE IMAGES OF HIS GENIUS. I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO STUMBLE UPON A VOGUE ITALY PRODUCED HARDBACK RETROSPECTIVE OF FERRE (PRONOUNCED FAIR-A) FROM THE EARLY 1990'S THAT HAS MANY OF HIS EARLY COLLECTIONS AND AD IMAGES. ONE OF THE PICTURES I REALLY LIKED WAS OF A 90'S SUPER-MODEL WALKING THROUGH A BAZAAR SOMEWHERE WEARING A FERRE FASHIONABLE BURKA. I HAVE RE-DRAWN HERE, BUT I GAVE HER A BIG GULP AND FRIES TO GIVE HER A MODERN EDGE AND LAUGH AT HOE THE U.S.A. LIKES TO WESTERN-UP EVERYTHING.
