Highly Curated

Canadian design wunderkind Jeremy Laing (jeremylaing.com), is taking a dip in art waters. Looks from his Fall 2009 collection will be worn by staff and curators at the Venice Biennale’s Canadian Pavilion. Opening June 7, the Pavilion will host the work of artist Mark Lewis who will be representing Canada with four films in the contemporary visual art exhibition. Said Laing of the honour: “I think the sober northern aesthetic of my work will be a nice complement to the cold, quiet austerity of his project for the Biennale.” Sober thoughts aside, Laing’s clothes will dazzle even the most jaded collector’s eye.
