Puppets and Puppets' Carly Mark found equilibrium between her signature sense of surrealism and the brand's wider commercial ambitions.
Puppets and Puppets started as a sculptural project and has morphed into one of New York’s most exciting brands. For fall, designer Carly Mark took the high-contrast, medical aesthetics from David Cronenberg’s 1988 film “Dead Ringers” as an artful way to approach both the beauty and horrors in the world.
It materialized in blood-red sequined dresses, a kind of tacky-chic gilded print one might find on silken pillows or in the carpets of an ’80s mansion, and in avant-garde dresses laser-printed with the likeness of Gaspare Traversi’s 18th-century painting “The Operation,” depicting Old World medical gore.
This season, that meant tempering some of her corsetry boning and ’80s high-octane glamour with a space that had a schoolroom checkered floor — strewn with food sculptures — and a collection that contained well-made, wearable clothes. But she maintained her signature elements of surrealism with resin roses or fried eggs affixed to shoes, bags and even over the nipple.
