The Dustin Yellin series for Harper's Bazaar captures fashion's beloved designers in his traditional humanoid ice sculptures. The infamous artist broke ground with the unveiling of his human-inspired ice sculptures using thousands of little pieces of mixed media to build the human body. His work has gone on to be displayed in the New York City Ballet and other prestigious areas.
Harper's Bazaar has now commissioned the artist to recreate his signature pieces to resemble fashion's most beloved designers. Marc Jacobs, Diane von Furstenberg, Karl Lagerfeld and Nicolas Ghesquière have all been recreated by the American artist. Each sculpture features the designers recreated using mixed media in an over-the-top ice cube. These prints showcase a new wave of artist collaboration throughout the fashion world.
