INSOMNIA

Today I want to finally show you the pictures from the 'Dream The World Awake' exhibition of Walter Van Beirendonck. Last September, I guess the time flies, I was invited to the opening night of the exhibition. 

At the start of the evening Walter gave a speech to the audience, which was huge.

I must say I was very impressed by the exhibition. I already saw many different art and fashion exhibitions but this one was different. I liked the special approach to it. Not only it displays some of Walter's best work, but also shows his personal side. The collection of different toys, art, cartoons gives a little insight into his personality.

My favorite part of the exhibition is the room where his office is rebuild. Walter has a large collection of toys and in that office you can see a part of it. The girl that helped to build the exhibition is a fellow blogger, Christin. 

Well, she told us it was a hell of a job to clean all that toys :)

Anyways, I can go on about it for a long time, but I have to study. If you live in Belgium or nearby and you love witty fashion, make sure to give that exhibition a look! It's still open till 19/02/2012 at MoMu Antwerp

My favorite piece of the exhibition

This ducky is just the cutest thing! Oh, while we're are talking, I must confess I'm a toy addict.

Sorry for the blurriness, but it was quite dark in there. These are the toys I talked about.

The crazy boots Bono that never wore, but still keeps them.

These shoes were quite the eye catcher of the evening. They give light, LIGHT I tell you!

Moomin, one of the cutest fiction creatures out there!

And they had Walter cookies. Who would have thought that you could eat Walter?! Well, we did!

The outfit I wore back in September XD : Zara sweater and skirt, River Island flower shoes, Fred Perry bag, H&M ring, Forever 21 necklace.

Excuse me my tired face, I was sick the night before.
