The Dancing Girls

[boothros.livejournal.com]

Sorry, feel completely stupid asking this but due to the death of my old PC which was my Pros bible, I need to know the designer who featured in Bodie's dancing girls picture. I know the painting was called 'Corsets' and even found out the artist once, but for now just need to know what fashion designer the poster advertised, thankyou.

Yes I'm sure someone actually found the original artwork details through TinEye for me, GB, but at the moment, I don't even have a copy of the picture to refer to. If anyone simply has a copy of the picture, that will do, I just need the designers name which I'm sure is Gio something written along the left hand edge.

This is the poster seen in Bodie's flat during the 'tulip scene', when Cowley takes delivery of the stun gas used in 'Need To Know'?

If so, there's a screen grab on Dave Matthew's Pros site within that episode's guide page. You can see a red word on the left side of the poster. Don't know if that helps at all?

Yes that's the very picture, but that screenshot is too small to get the writing from. Typically, when I used the painting in a vid, I edited out the text, I still HAVE that picture of course!

I have a few screencaps showing this painting, i can't remember the artist's name at the moment but the writing in the left hand side of the painting says FLORUCCI if that is any use or is it FIORUCCI it's one or the other .

Thanks for you help everyone, as soon as I was reminded of the name, I knew where to find the file. This isn't the best copy of it I've eve had, but nevertheless, here it is

Fiorucchi? Wasn't that that Studio 54-ish boutique in NYC in the late 70s? And I think they're resurrected recently?

I am suddenly *ALL* over this, LOL.

I'm not at home at the moment so can't check my copy, but might there be some info in Professional Insight?

I don't know about Professional Insight LR, what't that?

Professional Insight was published in the early '90s (I think) and was the result of many hours of work of a group of fans. They studied each episode in the minutest detail, and noted such things as the clothes the lads were wearing, the nicknames they used for each other, what they ate etc. Every little bit of trivia was recorded.

PI has been invaluable to me over the years and I've relied upon it many times for the quirky bits of information that just can't be found elsewhere. It used to be available from Gryphon Press, but now that Sara is sadly no longer with us I suppose it can only be found second hand these days.
