J'adore Patrick Blanc. The French botanist has garnered press for his creations known as "vertical vegetal walls", installed on the faces of offices buildings and inside the homes of hoity-toity aristocrats.
This week, Blanc contributed an enormous curtain of vines and living greenery to Stella McCartney's Spring 2008 Paris runway show. After the show, the gorgeous living mass will be donated to a low-income housing project in the banlieu of Boulogne. The joint effort is designed to promote ecology at a street level.
Oh yeah. Stella McCartney's collection wasn't half bad either.
