Franc Fernandez created pieces to wear to parties Downtown, and was subsequently contacted by Brian Lichtenberg, who commissioned Fernandez for his spring 09 show. There was no missing the caged, architectural headgear. The designer explains its inception:
"The line really started with Grace Jones and Jean-Paul Goude's video for 'Libertango'...She wears a dunce hat in the shape of a tall, sharp pyramid, but it gets taken off in the beginning and you don't really see it. That image has always stuck in my mind."
Then came music artists like Ebony Bones, Beyonce and Lady Gaga. The future is so bright for Franc right now..... watch out !!!
