Marlies Dekkers exhibition

Yesterday, ex-colleague Agnes and me went to the Kunsthal in Rotterdam, for the exhibition of 15 years of Marlies Dekkers (http://www.kunsthal.nl/en-22-591-15_Years_Marlies_Dekkers.html). We had won admission tickets, so as a real Dutch(wo)man you want to have everything that's for free! :-)

Who and what is Marlies Dekkers? Marlies is a world famous Dutch lingerie designer, who has stores in the major cities of the world and has won a number of important prizes. Both Agnes and me are fans of her bra's. The exhibition was a little bit strange, a mixture of paintings, sculptures, dolls with lingerie and large photo's. There even was a chair built completely of high heeled shoes turned upside-down! In half an hour we were through, and hungry! Up to the delicious sandwiches of De Bijenkorf, our favorite department store (http://www.bijenkorf.nl/BijWeb/)

I bought a present for a new born baby, whom I'm going to admire next Wednesday, a couple of books, a CD and some nice chocolates! Of course, a day out isn't complete without buying chocolates, mmmmm...... :-)

Although it took us nearly 2 hours in traffic jams to get home, it was a nice day!
