About this episode
In this week's episode, we investigate the rise of what we're calling Geometrica, the edgy, STEM-influenced design trend that ruled the 2000s and 2010s. We talk about the iconic looks of Lady Gaga's The Fame, triangle-induced Illuminati hysteria, Obama-era techno-optimism, second-generation k-pop music videos, Alexander McQueen's historic Plato's Atlantis collection, and much more.Links: Image boardCubism and Fashion – Met Gala 1998 Press ReleaseCubsim and Fashion by Richard MartinAlexander McQueen Spring 2010 (Plato's Atlantis) – Vogue RunwaySHOWstudio: Plato's Atlantis by Alexander McQueen (archived livestream)The McQueen Show that Changed the Future of Fashion – DAZEDEssay: Nick Knight on "Plato's Atlantis" – SHOWstudioTop by @perlaz0ne on InstagramImogen Heap's MiMU GlovesIris Van Herpen Spring 2010 (Crystallized)Mary Katrantzou Spring 2009 (Graduate Collection)Mary Katrantzou Fall 2011Basso & Brooke Fall 2009Lady Gaga and Daphne Guinness for V
