Anthony Alvarez is on a roll. Having been a semifinalist for last year’s LVMH Prize, then scooping the ANDAM Pierre Bergé award in July, he’s currently on the shortlist for the 2023 International Woolmark Prize, and he included five of the looks he made for that competition as part of Bluemarble’s fall outing. One, a mock-neck black jacquard sweater, bore a “psychedelic” Venetian mask that illustrates this collection’s carnival theme. But it wasn’t just in reference to Venice’s annual extravaganza; it was more about how, in his mind’s eye, that event relates to its American counterpart: Mardi Gras in New Orleans.
