In a sea of green with Bompass and Parr

Nautical rope knots and green dye have been slipping into our dreams of late as we at Tour De Force we have been making uniforms and accessories bespoke for magic-maker's Bompass & Parr with their latest alchemy with the elements of surprise...

The 'Voyage of Discovery' project involved flooding of Selfridges rooftop, and guiding visitors to reveal the fascinatingly  sweet  Stevia plant, which by the way- tastes like a sherbet sap!
We got a little carried away chewing on the leaves on the opening night, so I may have overdone my chlorophyll intake- but I imagine its good for detox (hopefully?)

 The bearer of Crystals

The trippy printed walls and futuristic set were designed by Studio Toogood- and  the holographic crystal montage wall was just screaming for garment usage to match wall ( a 'Garden State' poster moment)

The secret alcove of all-spiced brandy by the Experimental Cocktail Club-
 Here people got perfect little medicinal containers of this stuff- ideal for discreet public alcoholism (irrelevant, though it was really would drink it at any time of day).

During the event I took the Stevia plant on the underground and bumped into a chef I befriended at a party a million years ago, he said had recently been foraging for herbs and started chewing on the leaves. I'm pretty sure everyone thought I was dealing some new organic hallucinatory substance- the whole scenario was a bit like an urban Jurassic park intro... good times.
