Viktor & Rolf

Viktor & Rolf: Guys and Dolls. By Elva Ramirez. Wall Street Journal. 06.18.08.
excerpted text:

"Maverick Dutch designers Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren have cultivated a reputation for showing whimsical clothes in highly theatrical runway settings. So when London's Barbican Art Gallery approached the duo for a retrospective, the quirky designers wanted to do something playful. The result: A three-story playhouse showcasing dolls dressed in miniature Viktor & Rolf designs." (Elva Ramirez)

Viktor & Rolf: so good they did it twice. By Sarah Mower. The Daily Telegraph. 05.31.08.
excerpted text:

"Quite how to do justice to the strange phenomenon that is Viktor & Rolf is a problem that has teased fashion editors for years. Me, anyway. They are fashion's odd men out, a Dutch pair who dress like twins, speak in a serious monotone, always in agreement, never interrupting one another. It's an effect that, like Gilbert & George, makes them deliberately and disconcertingly hard to tell apart, as well as near-impossible to fathom."

excerpted text:

"As with the Graham Dolphin piece, whenever we buy art, we buy by gut feeling. The only basic rule is that we both need to really like the piece we're buying. There's no overall plan, no fixed budget, no investment strategy or art advisor involved. We certainly don't call it the Viktor & Rolf Company Art Collection - that just sounds too corporate and hedge-fund-y".
