The IMG FW12 NYFW Show Package is not only inspired by works of art, but it also features some of the most iconic masterpieces in art history. Recreated in collage formats, these classic paintings have been tweaked to include the biggest names in the model industry. Covering the entire Western history of art, these pieces feature Ilse De Boer portrayed as the mother of Christ, Charlotte Free plopped into Hieronymus Bosch’s Garden of Earthly Delights and Diana Moldovan caught in the surrealist world of Dali.
Directed by Bernard Design, the IMG FW12 NYFW Show Package contains 52 collages of the agency's models cut out of editorial spreads. Although the use of collages can easily drown out the model's own contribution, the striking visuals enable them to make a bold statement in these historic pieces.
