1950's hot rods and muscle cars with spiky rear fins and bodies emblazoned with
flames reflect the design motifs in the collection. The iconographic language of
Americana is re-drawn through more than half a century of pop and style culture. The
gas station is cast as a central symbol in this post-modern crossroads of new horizons
and economic fulfillment, a stage set where fashion, fantasy and the promise of new
discoveries collide.
